Subject: PATCH: 3.1.5-pws-7++: #key-* style completions
Date: Sat, 13 Feb 1999 14:06:53 +0100
From: Peter Stephenson <pws@ibmth.df.unipi.it>

This alters the format of definitions for directly bindable completions via
#key-array or #key-function widgets (for intermittent readers, these
function like the old zle -C widgets I previously introduced) so that the
bindkey string comes last, and there can be zero or more of them.

I've just noticed a slight problem with rebinding all completion-type key
bindings to use the new functions, when combined with #key-* bindings: if
you do (say) ^D, it will always generate the context-dependent list,
replacing the list you just made with the #key-* function, whereas if ^D
was bound as originally, it will use an existing completion list.  However,
that was imperfect because if there was no existing completion list it
would generate the one according to the old-style compctl's.  So the
present arrangement is probably better, but not perfect.  Is there some way
in shell code of making listing functions use an existing completion
list where there is one (maybe as an option)?
