Try a combination of AUTO_LIST and NO_LIST_AMBIGUOUS: setopt autolist unsetopt listambiguous Just btw: the use of `menu' in your mail is somewhat irritating because, as I think, you really only want a list. Menuing is done with AUTO_MENU or MENU_COMPLETE or the `menu' style. And menuing with a list sounds like menu selection, where you can move the cursor in a listing to select matches (turned on with the `select' value of the `menu' style).
