I like this particularly for the "sense" portion of the completion: with this patch and extra-verbose set, the show-ambiguity style actually highlights the "next typeable character", just like it does everywhere else. For the "time specifier" portion the change is also welcome. However, with this patch and extra-verbose, the «'' - exactly» alternative doesn't show. (It's not just "hidden"; each of "- -- before" and "+ -- after" take half of $COLUMNS.) I tried to reproduce this in 'zsh -f', but «echo *(m» simply cycled between various integers after the 'm'; it didn't give the calendar completion at all. It still did that with extra-verbose and group-name='' set, I haven't debugged further yet. > We have an extra-verbose style in _path_commands and this uses that > though I could be persuaded to use just verbose. I don't have an intuition for which of them is more appropriate, but whichever it ends up being, I will set it in my config... Cheers, Daniel
