ZSH completion

ZSH completion

[Anonymous bin ich]

Hi all!

Currently when I press tab, Zsh automatically completes the word and
shows a list of alternatives, like this:

% cd /m<TAB>
->
% cd /media
/media /mnt

I want Zsh to stop completing until I press tab for a second time.
Something like this:

% cd /m<TAB>
->
% cd /m
/media /mnt

Next tab will start filling in my command. How is it possible?

setopt bash_auto_list

That will still complete on the first tab if there's exactly one match.

Thanks, that is exactly what I wanted.

Is there any equivalent for this using zstyle? (Not a problem, just a
OCD compliance in maintaining my zshrc)

I would also add the 'menucomplete' should be off for the
aforementioned behavior:
setopt NO_menucomplete
