Although I've used Oh-My-Zsh in the past, I decided this time around (i.e. setting up a new computer) I'd try to avoid installing it to keep things a bit leaner. Right now I'm trying to cherry-pick Oh-My-Zsh's insensitive tab-completion feature. Digging around its source repo, I found the following line:
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list 'm:{a-zA-Z}={A-Za-z}' 'r:|=*' 'l:|=* r:|=*'
I'm fairly confident this is the line Oh-My-Zsh executes to do what I want, so I tried adding it to my .zshrc. Restarted my terminal. Typed cd desk, then hit [tab]. No dice -- I didn't get cd Desktop/.
Here's the entire .zshrc for reference:
# pure shell theme
autoload -U promptinit; promptinit
prompt pure
# completion definitions
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list 'm:{a-zA-Z}={A-Za-z}' 'r:|=*' 'l:|=* r:|=*'
fpath=(/usr/local/share/zsh-completions $fpath)
# syntax highlighting (must be last line)
source /usr/local/share/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
What am I doing wrong?
Just had to autoload and run compinit.
Here's the new .zshrc:
autoload -U compinit promptinit
promptinit
prompt pure
compinit
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list 'm:{a-zA-Z}={A-Za-z}' 'r:|=*' 'l:|=* r:|=*'
fpath=(/usr/local/share/zsh-completions $fpath)
source /usr/local/share/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
