| Nov 6, 2013 at 1:47 | comment | added | Sridhar Sarnobat | Thanks very much Gilles. And I didn't know about the no_ convention. | |
| Nov 6, 2013 at 0:48 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | @user7000 man zshoptions, or online in the page I linked. Search for auto_menu — options beginning with no_ are mechanically built opposites. | |
| Nov 6, 2013 at 0:40 | comment | added | Sridhar Sarnobat | Could someone point me to the documentation for no_auto_menu? I can't find it anywhere online (and my command line apropos NEVER finds anything useful). | |
| May 17, 2011 at 5:33 | comment | added | Sridhar Sarnobat | I finally got the solution. I needed your 2 options plus removing ALWAYS_LAST_PROMPT. So this gives me the elusive behavior I wanted: setopt bash_auto_list; setopt no_auto_menu; unsetopt ALWAYS_LAST_PROMPT; Once again, thank you for helping me out with this. I appreciate your persistence | |
| May 1, 2011 at 10:59 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | @user7000: Again, it does redisplay the list each time you press Tab. If I clear the screen from the terminal emulator menu, or create a file, then press Tab again, zsh redisplays the list and shows the new file. (Just tested with zsh 4.3.4, and I don't think that behavior has changed in a long time.) | |
| May 1, 2011 at 10:10 | comment | added | Sridhar Sarnobat | Thank you, you're right. I'm not sure why I didn't see that earlier. Is it possible to get it to redisplay the list on 2nd, 3rd, 4th TAB instead of nothing? Human instinct is to think your keyboard isn't working if nothing happens on 2nd, 3rd, 4th tab keypress. | |

| Apr 22, 2011 at 18:31 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | @user714112: setopt no_auto_menu does disable tab completion cycling: if you press Tab and the current prefix is ambiguous, you see a menu, and that's it, the command line won't change. | |
| Apr 22, 2011 at 18:01 | comment | added | Anonymous | Sorry, I phrased my question badly. I want to know how to disable tab completion cycling. I think I'll start a new question. | |
