Next question (please bear with me): Has anyone thought of making libcomplete suggest binaries when there's a match? It's more trivial to look in /bin then to parse $PATH the way bash is doing. On the other hand the semantics need to be thought of right -- does it show executable files when none of the local files match? does it put preference on executables than files in the current dir (when no partial match exists) and so on? Maybe it isn't worth it and just typing /bin before hitting Ins is the way to go? Lastly: what would it take to make libcomplete work in directories served by things like ftpfs, dossrv (9fat:) or 9fs (9fs sources)? andrey
