Can this plugin be used without ohmyzsh? If so, how?

I have a zsh setup that's not reliant on ohmyzsh. Can this plugin be used with just vanilla zsh? If so, what would be the correct installation method?

Thanks for pointing this out: the "Installation" section of the README is indeed misleading, now that I look at it. OMZ and Homebrew aren't required to use this plugin; it can work with standard ZSH as follows:

  1. Clone this Git repository or download and extract an archive of it.
  2. Go inside the folder.
  3. Follow the instructions in the Usage section of the README.

I'll leave this issue open as a reminder to update the REAME accordingly. Cheers.

Furthermore, it looks like the bindkey steps in Usage are not needed for OhMyZSH users. Thats similarly confusing. I would mv the Bindkey stuff to Install - other, or simiilar
