Subject: howto correct 7etc to /etc ?
Date: Wed, 6 Oct 2004 01:58:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041005235836.GA8546@spiegl.de> (raw)

I'd like to configure my completion so that when I type
 $ ls 7etc<TAB>

it corrects the mistyped 7 to   (note: on German keyboards / is shift-7)
 $ ls /etc
but only if the 7 is the first character of a path and if there isn't any
real file or directory that starts with a 7.  Unfortunately "_correct"
doesn't do the job in this case.

Can that be done?  My first guess was to take _expand_dots and modify it
but I must admit that I am still not enough of a zsh-guru to be able to do
it by myself.

Thanks for any hint,
 Andy.
