I really appreciate the people on this list helping me to learn zsh -- I am slogging my way through the manual, but its slow going. I am running into a strange behavior when completing a filename -- if I start with something which has no matches, and then press tab, the system will try to give me substring matches and this is fine, but what I would like to prevent is then it automatically completes with the first match, which -- at least for me -- is usually not what I want. How can I prevent this from happening? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it?
