Hi Ettore,
did you logout and logged back in?

Yes, 2-3 times, just in case to triple check all those files and PATH and
SHELL variables. They are the same, except for the PATH from Aquamacs:
----------------
by moving .zprofile to
t.zprofile
keeping:
.zshrc
in Aquamacs *Messages*:
16 environment variables imported from login shell (/bin/zsh).
M-x getenv
PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/TeX/texbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/texbin:/Library/TeX/texbin:/usr/local/texlive/2020/bin
-----------
Alternatively, do you see any difference in the environment if you open a
> fresh Terminal and run "zsh -l" in it?

Is this the pipe key? Here is what I get:, which seems strange:
~ $ zsh -|
pipe> quit
zsh: command not found: quit
update_terminal_cwd:printf:21: write error: broken pipe
update_terminal_cwd:21: write error: broken pipe
~ $
I even do not know how to terminate this process, and did it via quitting
Terminal, which asked me to terminate it.

It looks to me that Aquamacs doesn't do its PATH properly in the presence
of the local ~/.zprofile. But this is no proof, just based on my test of
moving it away, by moving it to ~/t.zprofile.

~ $ more .zshenv
.zshenv: No such file or directory

I'm quite puzzled, even with the poor knowledge I have about the zsh and
shells. I do not know the syntax of their source code: I just try to handle
some minimal code to get the prompt in Terminal explicitly display the full
path of the directory where I go. I am still worried about the aliases and
the function defined in my ~/.zshrc inherited from my old bash.
Best Regards,
Roussanka
