Re: problem with completion system

OK, thanks much.  I did put anissue on there about something else and
have not heard back.  I found those variables in the init.zsh, so maybe
that will help.  I am also slowly making my way through the manual, so
maybe I will know something soon.  Zsh has advantages, but it has quite
a learning curve.  But then lots of things are like that.
