Subject: Unexpected behavior with case insensitive completion under cygwin
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2004 10:52:00 -0000 [thread overview]

[I'm using zsh 4.2.0, compiled under a recent cygwin, on WinXP SP1]
Earlier in the week I was experiencing the following problem:
Run `zsh -f' followed by:
$ autoload -U compinit
$ compinit -C
$ ls c:/WIN<tab> => c:/WINDOWS/
$ ls c:/win<tab> => doesn't complete, as expected
$ zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list 'm:{a-z}={A-Z}'
$ ls c:/WIN<tab> => doesn't complete - is this a bug?
$ ls c:/win<tab> => doesn't complete - is this a bug?
It also no longer completes when using the cygdrive prefix:
$ ls /cygdrive/c/WIN<tab> => doesn't complete, but it did before the zstyle
command above.
Note however, that it will now complete case-insensitively when completing
relative paths:
$ cd c:/
$ ls WIN<tab> => WINDOWS/
$ ls win<tab> => WINDOWS/
I've spent quite a while trying various things, and found this morning that
the following will fix the problem:
$ zstyle ':completion:*:paths' accept-exact true
Now:
$ ls /cygdrive/c/win<tab> => /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/
$ ls c:/win<tab> => c:/WINDOWS/
This is great, but can anyone explain what's going on?
Thanks,
John.
