Subject: file completion(?) erases word typed
Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 22:48:42 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160823224842.GA24864@fujitsu.shahaf.local2> (raw)
I noticed something odd in a completion function that (eventually) calls _path_files:
% git config sendemail.smtpserver <TAB><^C> # autoload
% compdef __git_sendmail_smtpserver_values f
% f /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache-3.<TAB>
% f <CURSOR>
It erased the word I'd typed. ☹
It works fine when the period hasn't been typed. I've diffed
_complete_debug traces and saw in $_lastcomp that compstate[unambiguous]
differs between the two cases, but I'm not sure why, since the
completion is unique («/usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache-3*» has one
match).
