named directory bug

named directory bug

[Vincent Lefevre]

The bug concerning named directories is still there. For instance:

$ hash -d out=...
$ kill %[TAB]
$ echo ~out
zsh: no such user or named directory: out

because out is used in _pids. Will this bug be fixed? Otherwise, why
don't functions use reserved variable names, e.g. starting with "_"?

Here's a possible fix.  At the least it's a workaround that you can apply in
the meantime.

It fixes the problem, but completion with named directories no longer
works.

Ah.  Well, then, there's always this:

    zmodload -i zsh/parameter &&
	eval "local +h nameddirs; nameddirs=(${(@kvq)nameddirs})"

That's simulating in shell code what we'd have to write in C in order to
make saving and restoring of the nameddir table possible.

I've thought using parameters for named directories was a bad idea for a
very long time, ever since my csh-junkie hack of `chpwd () { cwd=$PWD }'
started causing `~cwd' to show up in my prompt.  (Guess when autonamedirs
became an option rather than the default behavior.)  At the very least I
think there should be a parameter flag for "this parameter is a nameddir"
checked by unsetparam_pm() and strsetfn() before calling adduserdir().

This doesn't work here:

$ ll ~out/[TAB]
_main_complete:21: bad set of key/value pairs for associative array

That's odd.  What do you see if you run this function?

    tryit() {
	hash -d
	setopt localoptions xtrace
	eval "local +h nameddirs; nameddirs=(${(@kvq)nameddirs})"
    }
