Hello fellow users, fist time poster. I apologize if this is not the =
right place.=20

On zsh 5.2 I am trying to write a completion function using the =
_describe builtin.

__foo_complete_func() {
  list=3D(foo:'description for foo=E2=80=99 bar:'description for bar')
  _describe '=E2=80=99 list && _ret=3D0
}

compdef __foo_complete_func foo

When autocompleting just =E2=80=9Cfoo =E2=80=9D I get the expected:

bar  -- description for bar
foo  -- description for foo

However when tab completing "foo b" I get no matches shown. I don=E2=80=99=
t understand why this is. I would expect to get the completion "foo =
bar=E2=80=9D

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Nic=
