Fix for "command not found" and hanging prompt...

[sean-]

Howdy. I'm finally making the change from tcsh to zsh and stumbled across this module, which I really like in concept, however, it appears to be broken out of the box for on macOS. I think.

$ exec zsh -f
$ source ~/.zsh/zsh-prioritize-cwd-history/zsh-prioritize-cwd-history.zsh
_zsh_prioritize_cwd_history_cwd_hist_entries:9: command not found: #
_zsh_prioritize_cwd_history_cwd_hist_entries:12: command not found: #
_zsh_prioritize_cwd_history_cwd_hist_entries:15: command not found: #
[ hangs indefinitely ]

I was able to fix this by removing the comments (I also applied a patch from a fork, which I think is appropriate). The command that zsh is hanging on is sed.
