It's something to do with using the -U argument to compadd when you've got ambiguous completions: it works fine when there's only a single completion. It was triggered by adding the -U's to do approximation in non-final path segments (even before the compmatch change). The initial "." is a red herring. However, I don't know where it's going wrong since when I do approximation after normal completion (but lots of other options set, too) it works fine. This triggers a different part of _path_files which has compadd -U but slight differences in the other arguments. Internally the Cline struct that's used for generating the command line looks a bit spartan in the failed case. Needless to say I haven't the faintest clue where this is leading. pws -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
