Subject: Named Dirs Not Registered for Completion Until Used
Date: Sat, 1 May 2004 13:43:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1595F0B2-9B97-11D8-B942-000502631FBD@louisville.edu> (raw)
I'm trying to create a named dir ~palmfiles for my Palm installation
directory, and I have the following line in my .zprofile:
export palmfiles=~/Documents/Palm/Users/Aaron\ Davies/Files\ to\ Install
When I start a new shell, I can say
cd ~palmfiles
and it will work, but what I *can't* do initially is
cd ~pa<tab>
It just beeps. After I've done
cd ~palmfiles
the tab completion works.
In order to remedy this, I've added the following line to .zprofile:
hash -d palmfiles=~/Documents/Palm/Users/Aaron\ Davies/Files\ to\
Install
but according to the zsh docs, I shouldn't have to do this. What do I
need to do to make a named directory available for completion (=?
present in hash table) immediately after shell startup?
