cvs completion / intelligent open

Hi all,
I have been using zsh for quite some time now, and the completion system
is superb. There are some minor nits though:
"cvs add" should complete not only files that are not currently in cvs,
but also files that have been locally removed (but not yet committed).

I also want to implement a semantic for opening / editing files, that is
independent of the file type. That is, if I say "open
a.html" it should open my preferred browser, and if I say "edit a.html"
it could open my preferred editor. Is such a function
already implemented?

regards,
Harshad

These files are included in CVS/Entries in the form

	/filename/-version/date//tag

where the `-' before the version number is what marks them removed.  To
show these files for "cvs add", the pattern used to set the `omitpats'
array, in _cvs_nonentried_files() in Completion/Command/Unix/_cvs, has
to be modified to leave out lines matching the above format.

I think this should do it:

       $_cvs_ignore_default
       ${=cvsignore}
     )

However, I'm not certain it's correct to treat removed files as nonentries
in all other cases, so it may really be necessary to create an entire other
function for this.  Any other zsh-workers have an opinion?  (Continue that
part of this thread on zsh-workers, please.)

Look at Functions/Example/zless for something similar.
