Subject: Redirection Symbol After Completion
Date: Fri, 7 Jul 2006 13:32:13 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060707173213.GA22592@namib.cs.utk.edu> (raw)
Hi. This is just a minor, cosmetic nuance of zsh that I'd like to
change, if possible. When I complete a filename with
cat fil<TAB>
the command line becomes "cat file.txt ". A space is displayed after
the completed filename, though I didn't type it. If I type another
argument, the space remains and separates the arguments. However, if I
type a redirection character like & or |, the space is removed and I get
cat file.txt|
I personally find commands easier to parse with my eye when the space
remains before the redirection symbol:
cat file.txt |
Is there any way to force this space to persist even if I type a
redirection operator? Thanks for any insight.
