Subject: Re: global aliases substituting *within* a path
Date: Fri, 18 May 2012 15:08:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1337346499.24458.140661077281237.140CF9BF@webmail.messagingengine.com> (raw)

> echo a/f/b/b/x<TAB>

Doesn't help here, for two reason:

(1) At least in my version of zsh (4.3.12), this would not expand the
interim directories (f,b,b). Instead I have to write them out explicitly
(foo/bar/baz), i.e. this is exactly what I wanted to avoid.

(2) Even if I could do TAB completion on directories within the path,
this is not what I'm looking for, because it is still cumbersome to
type.

:-(
