Hi,

how do I make case-insensitive filename completion work with umlauts?
I tried
 zstyle ":completion:*" matcher-list 'm:{A-Zöäüa-zÖÄÜ}={a-zöäüA-ZÖÄÜ}'
but it doesn't work.

Thanks!
 Andy.

Hmm ... works here (in one direction) in Cyrillic:

bor@cooker% zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list 'm:{a-zабв}={A-ZАБВ}' '+r:|[._-]=** r:|=**'
bor@cooker% l аTAB
bor@cooker% l АААБ
Completing files
АААБ   АААГ   АААВ

May it depend on locale settings? Do you have locale set up?

bor@cooker% env | grep LANG
LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R
LANGUAGE=ru_RU:ru
bor@cooker% env | grep LC
LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R
LC_COLLATE=ru_RU.KOI8-R
LC_MESSAGES=ru_RU.KOI8-R
LC_MONETARY=ru_RU.KOI8-R
LC_NUMERIC=ru_RU.KOI8-R
LC_TIME=ru_RU.KOI8-R

This is on Mandrake with zsh 4.0.6

Hi Andrey and Oliver,

thanks for your help, but it still doesn't work. :-(

> May it depend on locale settings? Do you have locale set up?
Yes.  I didn't have all the LC_* set up, just LC_ALL but even after copying
your setup it doesn't work.

> This is on Mandrake with zsh 4.0.6
Here Debian Package zsh 4.0.4-33

Oops!

> Try 'm:{A-Zöäüa-zÖÄÜ}={a-zÖÄÜA-Zöäü}' instead.
Unfortunately this doesn't work either. :-(

Now when I type TAB after an umlaut _nothing_ happens, it just beeps.
If I press TAB after a "normal" character it completes, but doesn't change
the case of umlauts either.  Hm, what else could be wrong?

Thanks,
 Andy.

Hi Oliver,

thanks for helping me!

> Can you try just using a simple function like this:
> _foo () {
> compadd -M 'm:{A-Zöäüa-zÖÄÜ}={a-zÖÄÜA-Zöäü}' - Ö123 Ä123 A567 Ü987

> foo ä<tab>

Yep works.  After the TAB I get "foo Ä123".
Hm, so why doesn't it work with normal completion?

Do you see any problem with these lines in my setup maybe?

zstyle ':completion:*' completer _expand_dots _complete _match _correct
zstyle ':completion::match:*' original yes
zstyle ':completion::match:*' insert-unambiguous true
zstyle ':completion::approximate:*' max-errors 2 numeric
zstyle ':completion::approximate:*' insert-unambiguous true
zstyle ':completion:*' ignore-parents parent pwd
zstyle ':incremental' completer _complete _correct
zstyle ':predict' completer _complete
zstyle ':completion:*:*:(^rm):*:*files' ignored-patterns '*?.(o|c~)' '*?~'
unsetopt rec_exact
zstyle ':completion:*:(cd|chdir|pushd|popd):*' special-dirs ..
zstyle ':completion:*:*:*' special-dirs ..
zstyle ':completion:*:*:*' special-dirs ..
zstyle ":completion:*" matcher-list 'm:{A-Zöäüa-zÖÄÜ}={a-zÖÄÜA-Zöäü}'
zstyle ':completion:*' squeeze-slashes true
zstyle ':completion:*' menu select=5
zstyle '*:matches' group 'yes'
zstyle ':completion:*' group-name ''
zstyle ':completion:*:*' group-order builtins functions aliases commands

Thanks so much,
 Andy.

Hi Oliver,

> However, I could reproduce the problem under zsh 4.0.2. What version are
> you running because 4.0.6 and recent 4.1 seem to work fine?
condor:~>echo $ZSH_VERSION
4.0.4

Wait a moment, I'll quickly update to 4.0.6....

condor:~#apt-get -t testing install zsh
...
 (zsh 4.0.4-33 ---> zsh_4.0.6-13)
...
condor:~>zsh
condor:~>touch abcäüasd
condor:~>ls abcÄ<tab>

And it works!  Great, so it _was_ a bug!

Thanks a lot for your help,
 Andy.

    Don't keep a negative attitude, such as
       "I will not succeed, I will not succeed."
    Instead, keep a positive attitude, such as
       "I WILL fail.  I WILL fail."

You're mapping the characters to themselves instead of to the opposite
case. Try 'm:{A-Zöäüa-zÖÄÜ}={a-zÖÄÜA-Zöäü}' instead.
