zsh, bindkeys, and CTRL+X CTRL+E editor

[Sadiq Saif]

According to the zsh manpage [1], you can use the hash built-in:

hash [ -dfmr ] [ name[=value ] ] ...

hash -f
The `-f' option causes the entire path to be searched, and all the
commands found are added to the hash table.

So, in this case, you would do:

apt-get install foo && hash -f
