I am not sure about specific color for prefix, because as it looks like most people switched to menu completion (even hardcore commandliners) that allows selection of (several) matches with normal cursor keys in full screen menu. Because you get list of matches anyway it is much faster. In any case I Cc to Zsh list in case I miss something. -andrej ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread

Zsh emits color codes only in completion listings (i.e., when more than one match is displayed simultaneously), not when there is only one match inserted on the line and not when doing menu completion (where matches are cycled on the command line, as opposed to menu selection where they're shown in columns). Even in listings/selection, there's no color change sequence emitted between the prefix and any suffixes; color codes are printed only before and after each entire match. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com Zsh: http://www.zsh.org | PHPerl Project: http://phperl.sourceforge.net ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
