		loeg 6 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Writing simple tab-completions for Bash and Zsh There is one particular command I occasionally use that has totally broken completion for files, so I've taken to just using 'ls X Y Z' to get the right completion behavior and then changing 'ls' to the right command as the last step.
