Description
CTRL-e terminal under macos should be zsh, not bash
After the standard terminal under macos is no longer bash, it would be good if the commands (CTRL-e) are also executed under zsh.
If you call micro under zsh, commands are still executed under bash.

Research direction
Start by locating the CTRL-e command execution path in the micro editor and how it selects a shell on macOS. Compare behavior when micro is launched from zsh; done means CTRL-e commands use zsh rather than bash in that situation, with the behavior verified on macOS.
