zsh-3.1.2-zefram3

[Andrew Main <zefram@xxxxxxxxx>]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I've put together an unofficial release, version 3.1.2-zefram3.  I'm not
up to doing a full release like Zoltan's -- his scripts in the top-level
Makefile don't suit my setup -- so, as was previously my custom with
unofficial releases, the only generated files in the tar are the
autoconf ones.  You'd better have yodl.

Sizes:

117257 zsh-3.1.2-3.1.2-zefram3.diff.gz
669945 zsh-3.1.2-zefram3.tar.gz

As I'm on a relatively slow link here, that isn't intended to support
an ftp server, someone else will have to host this release.  Offers of
ftp space would be appreciated.  Until these files are ftpable, I am
prepared to send copies to developers by email.

A complete list of patches considered for this release is included below.
I'd particularly like to discuss the recent ZLE-related feature patches:

y  3492 pws      compctl -/ for directory completion like -f
	I like this a lot.  I've really missed this capability in the
	past, and the way it is done here is impressively neat.  I also
	updated the compctl-examples script to use -/ where appropriate,
	which was quite a lot of places.

y  3498 pws      compctl -W to complete under a directory
	I suspect that this could be mostly achieved by -K functions.
	However, it doesn't seem to be possible to precisely duplicate
	the directory behaviour (-/), and this is reasonably neat.

N  3503 wischnow lots of nifty completion options
	This I did not include.  AUTO_GLOB_COMPLETE really has very
	little to do with GLOB_COMPLETE -- all it does is complete from
	the beginning of the word as well as the end.  This is the sort
	of thing that multicomp is for.  COMPLETE_FOLD_CASE I would
	have used had it been separate from the rest of the patch; it
	does something useful that can't easily be done in user space.
	The other compctl options (-. and -:) I do not like.  They seem
	to require an awful lot of code for something that, again,
	should really be part of a completion function.

N  3554 ajrh     allow vared to succeed on EOF
	This can be done by temporarily rebinding ^D to accept-line, or
	to a user-defined widget that conditionally calls accept-line.
	(See Functions/zed for an example of how to temporarily change
	bindings.)  Also, while I agree that vared -c is not much
	use, removing the option entirely will cause problems with
	some scripts.  Changing the default EOF behavior would cause
	similar problems.  While I would like the whole area of EOF
	handling in ZLE to be re-examined, this patch does not do a
	proper job of that.

N  3581 pws      keyboard macros for ZLE
	The functionality is good, but this should be done by *calling*
	the input function, not by modifying it.  Once input is done
	via widgets, this will be implementable in user space.

y  3636 pws      compctl -y and -Y
	compctl -y is good.  It does something that's been on my wish list
	for a long time.  Considering the way variables and functions
	can both be specified with -y, maybe this should be extended to
	-K for consistency.  compctl -Y is pretty useful and neat, but
	I include it with a reservation: perhaps it would be better to
	have the explanation *always* be expanded.  It wouldn't affect
	any scripts, and we could use $_ instead of that icky %n thing.
