So, the question pretty much says it all. I'm on Snow Leopard, and I do a lot of web development, particularly in Rails 3 which makes heavy use of the console.

I've seen some notable bloggers etc. mention Zsh as their preference over Bash, but I don't know what difference it would make.

Could anyone give me a good comparison of what difference there is and what might make one prefer one option or the other?

Thanks!

A good place to start would be the FAQ of the homepage. – Bobby Feb 3 '11 at 15:22
What features are in zsh and missing from bash, or vice versa? might help you make up your mind, as well as the many other threads cited there. – Gilles Feb 21 '11 at 23:04
