I'm migrating my stuff from bash to zsh. I'm a stymied by an error that

crops up from time to time and I'm not sure how to fix.

In bash, I had these lines:

# completion commands

complete -F _complete_alias t

(and so on)

That means that at some other point in your bash startup, a function
named _complete_alias was defined, and you told bash to run that
function to complete the "t" (etc.) commands.

Removing these lines is probably the right thing, but otherwise you
need to port the _complete_alias definition into your zsh startup as
well.  You must already be loading bashcompinit if there is no
complaint about the "complete" command not being found.

Perhaps the OP is using:

This looks very vaguely familiar. I think you are right and I did use this. Thanks for googling that for me. :)

I've had a little too much wine with dinner to go back and figure out what I did 2 hours ago, never mind 2 years ago. I will review this tomorrow. Thanks!
