Bingo! Thanks Bart. I can't say that's intuitive but it works and isn't
hard to remember. But couldn't we have:
zstyle ':completion:*' auto-multiple-completion
or something like that? In the above situation I'd want it to perform
any and all completions/expansions/corrections all at once, every time.
Mind, with completions, of course there can be choices to be made, but
variable expansions should pretty well be automatic IMHO. Or at least
I'd always want that.
