Re: How to avoid infinite recursion in ZLE widgets

[Peter Slížik <peter.slizik@xxxxxxxxx>]

By the way, the documentation says that zle -R should be called after changing the command line from within a ZLE widget.

However, when playing with LBUFFER and RBUFFER I realized that zle -R is not needed and the changes are visible immediately.

Why is it so?

function insert-single-quotes() {

}

Yes, this would be the best way. I wonder why I overlooked this possibility.

Thanks a lot,
