Hi everyone,
Does zsh has the equivalent of tcsh's "complete" variable ? It is very
usefule when used with the value "enhance" because case is not significant
when completing filenames... Very handy.
If the complete shell variable is set to `enhance',
completion 1) ignores case and 2) considers periods,
hyphens and underscores (`.', `-' and `_') to be word sep-
arators and hyphens and underscores to be equivalent. If
you had the following files
comp.lang.c comp.lang.perl comp.std.c++
comp.lang.c++ comp.std.c
and typed `mail -f c.l.c[tab]', it would be completed to
`mail -f comp.lang.c', and ^D would list `comp.lang.c' and
`comp.lang.c++'. `mail -f c..c++[^D]' would list
`comp.lang.c++' and `comp.std.c++'. Typing `rm
a--file[^D]' in the following directory
A_silly_file a-hyphenated-file
another_silly_file
would list all three files, because case is ignored and
hyphens and underscores are equivalent. Periods, however,
are not equivalent to hyphens or underscores.
