Indrajit Raychaudhuri 1ff9421f7b general: Update documentation better qualifying runcom paths
Zsh and Prezto files don't always reside in `~/`. Instead, they have
a more spec compliant location (`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/`). Make them
unambiguous in the documentation. Likewise, for `$GNUPGHOME`.

Further, add instruction for optionally setting up Prezto in
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.

While at this, also add clarification on relative ordering of some of
the modules, apply more formatting tweaks and doc improvements.

# Autosuggestions
Integrates [zsh-autosuggestions][1] into Prezto, which implements the
[Fish shell][2]'s autosuggestions feature, where the user can type in any part
of a previously entered command and Zsh suggests commands as you type based on
history and completions.
If this module is used in conjunction with the [_`syntax-highlighting`_][3]
module, this module must be loaded _after_ the _`syntax-highlighting`_ module.
If this module is used in conjunction with the [_`history-substring-search`_][4]
module, this module must be loaded _after_ the _`history-substring-search`_
module.
To elaborate, the relative order of loading the modules would be
_`autosuggestions`_, _`syntax-highlighting`_ and _`history-substring-search`_.
## Contributors
New features and bug fixes should be submitted to the [zsh-autosuggestions][1]
project according to its rules and regulations. This module will be synchronized
against it.
## Settings
### Highlighting
If colors are enabled, _autosuggestions_ will automatically highlight
positive results.
To enable highlighting for this module only, add the following line to
_`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_:
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:autosuggestions' color 'yes'
```
To set the query found color, add the following line to
_`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_:
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:autosuggestions:color' found ''
```
## Troubleshooting
### Autosuggestions from previous sessions don't show up
For autosuggestions from previous shell sessions to work, please make sure you
also have the `history` module enabled.
