Paging tab completion #29

Open joelphillips opened 11 years ago

joelphillips commented 11 years ago

I'd like a way to page through the possible completions. It seems like the most natural way would be for subsequent presses of tab to advance to the next page.

Yep. I have also been thinking about adding other completion modes for people who prefer more classic behavior. Something more zshy were when you try to complete it display a paged list with a description of each item would be nice.

I fully agree. Having to use 4 keys (ALT, LEFT, RIGHT, DOWN) to select a completion is very cumbersome, especially when one is used to do everything with repeated TAB presses.
