Antidote doesn't do automatic updates like oh-my-zsh. Set up easy auto updating of the bundles loaded in your configuration.
It also will automatically check your ~/.zsh_plugins.txt and bundle again if it was modified.
See information about loading plugins on Antidote's homepage.
Activate with antidote bundle snailslug/autoupdate-antidote-zsh.
See why not oh-my-zsh.
There are numerous global variables that will be set with defaults if they are undefined. You may override these in your .zshrc.
Note: If you are using the default names for the files described in the Loading Plugins section of Antidote's website, they will be automatically detected, if they exist. This script will not create them for you, and the corresponding feature is disabled.
