From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Subject: Autocompletion ala windows-esque From: Benjamin Korvemaker To: zsh-workers@sunsite.auc.dk Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1999 13:16:58 -0600 (MDT) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <19990929191705Z13390-21686+194@scapa.cs.ualberta.ca> X-Mailing-List: 8103 Forgive me now for this horrible thought. I'm at that point in my life where I need a shell that fills in the completion automagically and changes it as necessary the more I type (just like that horrible feature that MS products tend to have). I'm crazy, I admit it. To make life easier in the future, I'm planning on putting potential completions into a list or array (of the zsh variety). Before I begin the nastiness, has someone already done this? (Aside from the Reactive Keyboard from U of Calgary, which does all sorts of nasty termio stuff in a way that was current 9 years ago and doesn't like to compile on newer OS's) And any hints as to where to start inserting stupid hacks? Thanks, Ben -- Benjamin Korvemaker benjamin@cs.ualberta.ca There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.
