This may be a bug. I am not sure, I do not understand completion well
enough.
compctl -x 'C[-1,-*r*]' -g '*(/)' -g '*(-/)' -- rm
in my home directory:
woodlawn% rm -rf .<tab>
completes to
woodlawn% rm -rf .p
This makes no sense to me...
compctl -x 'C[-1,-*d*]' -g '*.gz *.Z *.z' -g '*(-/)' -- gzip
here, I am in a directory with a directory and a tar.gz file
gzip -d <tab>
will complete to
gzip -d <directory>
Am I misunderstanding this? I want this to complete to .gz files.
thanks

Try these. This is from the compctl examples file.
# gzip files, but gzip -d only gzipped or compressed files
compctl -f -x 'R[-*d,^*]' -g '*.gz *.z *.Z' + -g '*(-/)' -- gzip
compctl -g '*.gz *.z *.Z' + -g '*(-/)' gunzip # zcat if you use GNU
compctl -g '*.Z' + -g '*(-/)' uncompress zmore # zcat if you don't use GNU
rc

The two -g flags are used simultaneously, expanding to one set of
completions. So if the directory is before the .gz file
alphabetically, it will complete first. To use the second flag only
if the first one does not generate any completions, put a '+' between
them.
Hope this helps,
Bas.
