I added this a while back and used it. After a couple of job changes I lost it from my zshrc file. So the short story is that I dont know when it broke but it is (at least for me - Solaris 2.4 on a Sparc). The good news is that the option COMPLETE_IN_WORD causes completion to do what 'complete-or-expand-prefix' was meant to do, i.e. complete words up to the cursor rather than to the end of the word. There are 2 options: 1. I can fix 'complete-or-expand-prefix' (I have a patch) or 2. delete 'complete-or-expand-prefix' completely. Im happy with either - do we want backward compatibilty? Anthony.
