It'd help to know whether you're using zsh-3.1.6 or later, or zsh-3.0.7 or before. It'd also help to see "ls" output or the like showing the names that you expect to be completed. Completion of a file with a space in the name should look someting like this, where indicates the point at which the TAB key is pressed: zagzig[22] ls A zagzig[22] ls Adair\ County\ Brochure.doc ^cursor here Or if the completion is ambiguous: zagzig[22] ls H zagzig[22] ls Historic\ Weddings zagzig[22] ls Historic\ Weddings Historic\ Weddings\ page\ 2.doc Historic\ Weddings.doc The latter behavior assumes you have "autolist" and "listambiguous" set, which is the case by default in 3.1.6 but not in 3.0.7. (For those of you wondering why I have documents about historic Adair County weddings lying around on my disk, it has to do with the B&B that my mother runs back in Iowa.) -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
