Re[2]: completing files first

["Manuel Presnitz" <mpy@gmx.net>]

Honestly, I do not really understand these zstyle stuff, but combining
Jesper's suggestions with my own .zshrc I found by chance, that

zstyle ':completion:*' file-patterns '*(-/):directories:directories %p(^-/):globbed-files' '*:all-files'

(note the second word ,directories', wchich is just a label, it could also be
something else) instead of

zstyle ':completion:*' file-patterns '*(-/):directories %p(^-/):globbed-files' '*:all-files'

works also with ,less' -- as in your example.
