Thanks for the tip! I tried to read the zsh manual already.
It looks very big.
I am looking for a step by step guide (a tutorial) to get some funky
completions working. Does something like this exist?

I tried to use this but it seems to have no effect.
I evaluated it on the command line and I tried it from .zshrc
I still get the same output from ^xh
Does the zstyle statement only affect the completion order? I want to
exclude the user completion from the cd command.
Stefan.
