iterm is a popular one for Mac. A tradeoff to think about with non bash shells is whether the gain in efficiency is worth the lack of portability if you are ever going to be doing anything remotely where you can't install the shell. You end up having to learn bash anyways - is it worth it to spend the time learning your other shell as well?
Thanks for sharing this Tyler. I was looking for an excuse to go back to xterm, as I haven't found anything that fast. It is specially noticeable with ncurses stuff like mc. I did love the trick to log the bash commands properly.

I have problem to capture exit status, it is allways 0?
