Something completion related

Hi,
Currently my zsh completes this way:
I enter a command and the beginning of the filename and press
<TAB>. ZSH then displays all possible matches in a selectable menu
below the commandline and replaces my incomplete filename with the
complete first match (which is not necessaryly the one that I
want...)
Supposing the above behaviour:
I enter "rm -f", enter a incomplete filename and press <TAB>.
ZSH behaves as above and I verify, that all listed files are those I
want to remove. I press "*" and....oh SHIT: Instead of
rm -f aaab*
I get
rm -f aaab *
which matches definitely much more as I want.
I was searching for a way to change ZSH's completion to the
following:
After pressing <TAB> ZSH should not insert the complete first match
and display all matches in a menu below the commandline but let my
incomplete filename string as it is and display a selectable menu
below from where I could choose the correct filename.
And I want to get rid of the "insert space" effect described above
(rm -f aaab<space>*).
I would be very happy, I someone can help me on modifying the
configuration of the completion system that way,
Thank you very much in advance !
Have a nice sunday!
