Package: zsh
Version: 4.3.4-24ubuntu1
Severity: wishlist
If files with the same name exist in more than one place under PATH,
then =filename<Tab> should list them all.
Currently:
% echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
% whereis cuetag
cuetag: /usr/bin/cuetag /usr/local/bin/cuetag
% file =cuetag‹Tab›
all expansions
[/usr/local/bin/cuetag]
original
=cuetag
After pressing Tab, both locations of the file could have been shown:
% file =cuetag‹Tab›
expansions
[/usr/local/bin/cuetag] /usr/bin/cuetag
all expansions
/usr/local/bin/cuetag /usr/bin/cuetag
original
=cuetag
While such a situation is rather a rare one, it’s likely to cause
confusion whenever it occurs, so it would be quite handy for zsh
to give more information in that case.
