[RFC PATCH 0/3] Improve defaults



It doesn't make much sense to specify so many options when simple
defaults can do it.

So instead of this:

    HISTFILE ~/.histfile
    HISTSIZE 1000
    SAVEHIST 1000

We can just do:

    HISTFILE ~/.histfile

I personally don't see the need to specify a file when virtually every
software dumps their history by default, but it's a start.

From what I can see most people simply set SAVEHIST to HISTSIZE, so it
makes sense to have a value to make them equal by default. I used -1.

I've tried for a while have the most minimal .zshrc file that is useful,
and never is that small. This should help.

  Make SAVEHIST default to HISTSIZE
  Increase default HISTSIZE to 1000
