(I noticed this while working on a variant of _complete_debug.) I believe this is because _complete_help redefines compadd to always fail. Nevertheless it's a bit of a pain, as no additional context information is obtained by trying the other matchers. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
