There already is an upstream issue for that: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting/issues/252 Given that your alias changes the meaning of a shell syntax construct, it would break _any_ plugin that's run by `source` [which is most of them], not just z-sy-h. Hence I'm demoting the severity. I'm afraid the upstream fix is not entirely trivial, it is not scheduled yet. In the meantime, the workarounds available to you are either to move the «!» inside the parentheses, or to define the alias _after_ loading z-sy-h. Cheers, Daniel
