} Yes, sorry, little confusion in my internal hash tables...
This brings up a general question, then. Suppose for the moment that we
do choose ++ to mean inclusive-or. Suppose I have:
compctl -x 'c[-1,-m]' -P '%' -u ++ -P '+' -f -W ~/Mail -- zmail
I.e., "user names prefixed with % or files in ~/Mail prefixed with +".
What does the list of completions look like before any + or % is present
on the command line? If there's both a file and a user named "schaefer",
which prefix gets inserted?
