Hi,
I am a little confused...
In my .zshrc I expanded PATH as follows:
export PATH="$PATH:${HOME}/bin/."
Later in .zshrc I load a file called .zsh.completion, which
contains all completion related stuff (not that much in the moment).
Now...
When I -- for example -- type "b<TAB>" at the prompt, the completion
system will suggest all executables starting with "b" to me...except
those, which can be found in ${HOME}/bin/.
But: Typing such an executable's full name after the prompt followed
by <RETUN> will execute that executable (hence the name :O).
What did I so badly wrong here, that the completion system will
ignore my bin at home ;O))) ??
# The following lines were added by compinstall
# for LS_COLORS completions
zmodload zsh/complist
# default is selection via menu
zstyle ':completion:*:default' menu yes select
# use LC_COLORS
zstyle ':completion:*:default' list-colors ${(s.:.)LS_COLORS}
# use cacheing
zstyle ':completion:*' use-cache on
zstyle ':completion:*' cache-path ~/.zsh/cache
# expand PID for kill-cmd
zstyle ':completion:*:kill:*' force-list always
# default stuff
zstyle ':completion:*' completer _expand _complete
zstyle ':completion:*' expand suffix
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list '' 'm:{a-z}={A-Z}' 'l:|=* r:|=*'
zstyle :compinstall filename '/home/mccramer/.zsh.completion'
# initialisation
autoload -U compinit
compinit
# End of lines added by compinstall
Thank you very much in advance for anyy helpful reply to my question.
Kind regards,
Meino Cramer

Get rid of the trailing /. and completion should work fine:
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin"
..wayne..

Thanks a lot for your help ! :)
The only thing what will remain in my brain about this is (only
curiosity) the question: Why is "~/bin/." not working and works
"~/bin" correctly since "cd ~/bin/." also does the same as "cd ~/bin"
??? Isn't that a little inconsequent ? Or unlogical ?
