One of the things that I just didn=E2=80=99t know is what is =E2=80=9Cmenu select=E2=80=9D (as oppose = to not using =E2=80=9Cmenu select=E2=80=9D) from a user interface perspective. I finally (a few hours ago today) understand that (for example) if I have a directory full of files and I type a bit of one of the file names and hit tab I get a list of completions. Now if I hit tab a second time (with my current configuration) I then go into =E2=80=9Cmenu select=E2=80=9D which highlights one of the words and I can now drive = around the menu with the arrow keys (and there is probably a lot more features too that I=E2=80=99ve let to discover). "Not menu select" the interface is different. It appears I can set menu to true which has one interface or false which has another interface. I figured this out by tweaking zstyle ':completion:*:*:*:*:*' menu XXX to the different values. What confused me is that (at least with the configuration I started from) I need to hit tab a second time before I see any difference. Is there a section in the man pages or the manual that describes the various user interfaces? Thank you
