Backstory: I SSH into servers where I want to see a personalized root prompt. However, other people log onto these servers and don’t necessarily want me changing the prompt.
Question: How can I make a zsh alias/function such that I can log in as a regular user, and typing [my su shortcut] will launch a su session, source .zshrc from my personal home directory, and leave me at a root prompt?
See zsh(1) for details.
