auto-rehashing?

auto-rehashing?

[Greg Badros]

Can zsh auto-rehash when I hit tab a second consecutive time when
completing in a command position?  I often add executable scripts to my
path on the fly, and it's an annoyance to have to C-c, then rehash, then 
retype the partial script name and then re-complete.

Thanks,
Greg

compctl -C -K cmd-comp -c
function cmd-comp {
	rehash
}

This rehashes on all command name completions.

How about this:

function compctl_rehash { rehash; reply=() }
compctl -C -c + -K compctl_rehash + -c

That says to try command completion, then if that fails, to rehash, and
then (because compctl_rehash empties $reply) to try command completion a
second time.
