Just try it while at the end of non-empty line and see where cursor moves.

Zsh has reasonable wizard that creates initial zshrc and does not require much
time to get used to it if you are already familiar with bash. Most of bash
functions will work in zsh as well, but you will need to rewrite prompt and
bindings (it looks like they can not invoke any functions so it is easy with
``binkey -s'').
It also has some very useful modules: zpty (an analog of expect), zmv
(rename/copy/link files); ttyctl (restores tty settings after application
exited
or crashed), PCRE regex support, hooks for everything, globbing flags (capable
of replacing `find' and any `find | ... | xargs ...' pipe, though with some
perfomance penalty), parameter expansion flags (for example, escaping a string
stored in a variable no more requires sed, just ${(qqq)VAR}), highly
configurable completion... Just start using and you'll never want to switch
back.
