Re: Small nitpick: _nm completion



I never saw a response to this ...

} I think it should complete general directories too, just like every
} other file completion I can think of.

I am not able to reproduce this from "zsh -f" + compinit:

torch% nm /usr<TAB>
torch% nm /usr/<TAB>
torch% nm /usr/
bin/          games/        lib64/        sbin/         X11R6/
doc/          include/      libexec/      share/
etc/          kerberos/     local/        src/
evolution28/  lib/          man/          tmp@


That is, first TAB adds a slash, second TAB lists directories.  In no
circumstance can I complete directly from "/usr/bin" with no trailing
slash, to a list of files, so if that's actually working for you there
must be some additional configuration stepping in.
