Hmm ok, then.. time to reformulate the question.. I want to configure what TAB does :-) I assume that is Completion then. The main confusion was when quickly (yeah I know, I should take my time..) reading through chapter 6 of the zshguide "Completion and expansion", | > setopt glob bareglobqual nullglob rcexpandparam extendedglob unset | > unsetopt markdirs globsubst shwordsplit shglob ksharrays cshnullglob | > unsetopt allexport | > | > Should I use these, or do something with completion, compinstall? | | Where did you find those three (un)setopt commands, and why do you think | you need them? Just an example from my side, sort of "is it these I should poke on?" (from the zsh users guide) or are they replaced by "zstyle ':completion:*' completer _list ..." or do they work together?

So basically.. remove all my options for completion, run compinstall and live happily for the rest of the time :-)? Thank you ! /Andy
