-When displaying inline images that are larger than the window, Emacs
-does not enable scrolling, which means that you cannot see the whole
-image. To prevent this, the library tries to determine the image size
-before displaying it inline, and if it doesn't fit the window, the
-library will display it externally (e.g., with @samp{ImageMagick} or
-@samp{xv}). Setting this variable to @code{t} disables this check and
-makes the library display all inline images as inline, regardless of
-their size. If you set this variable to @code{resize}, the image will
-be displayed resized to fit in the window, if Emacs has the ability to
-resize images.
+This variable is @code{resize} by default, which means that images

+@subsection Changing the default remote shell
+@cindex zsh setup
+
+Per default, @value{tramp} uses the command @command{/bin/sh} for
+strting a shell on the remote host. This can be changed by setting
+the connection property @option{remote-shell}, see @xref{Predefined
+connection information}. Other properties might be adapted as well,
+like @option{remote-shell-login} or @option{remote-shell-args}. If
+you want, for example, use @command{/usr/bin/zsh} on a remote host,

+(add-to-list 'tramp-connection-properties
+ (list (regexp-quote "@trampfn{ssh,user@@host,}")
+ "remote-shell" "/usr/bin/zsh"))
+@end group
+@end lisp
+
+This approach has also the advantage, that settings in
+@code{tramp-sh-extra-args} will be applied. For zsh, the trouble
+with the shell prompt due to set zle options will be avoided.
