[X-Unix] Re: zsh / spotlight / application completion

[Lists]

I wasn't sure if you were sharing a technique or asking a question.

I tried your method (I use zsh but never fully "got" compctl).

It doesn't do what I'd want, which is:

	$ open -a i[tab]

would prompt with

	$ open -a iCal
	iCal iChat iDVD iMovie\ HD iPhoto\ Diet iPhoto\ Library\ Manager  
iPhoto iStumbler iSync iTunes iWork

instead I get

  	open -a /Applications\ \(Mac\ OS\ 9\)/Acrobat\ Reader\ 5.0/Acrobat 
\ Reader\ 5.0
	zsh: do you wish to see all 427 possibilities (427 lines)?

presumably because there is an 'i' matched *somewhere* but I intended  
for it to *only* match apps which began with the letter "i"

All of my apps (except Finder) are in /Applications (I don't use OS 9  
although it is installed)	 and the .app extension is optional, I believe
