zsh-autocomplete adds real-time type-ahead autocompletion to Zsh. Find as you type, then press Tab to insert the top completion, Shift Tab to insert the bottom one, or ↓ / PgDn to select another completion.
for ZSH usersZsh can handle bash completions functions. The latest development version of zsh has a function bashcompinit, that when run will allow zsh to read bash completion specifications and functions.
Use of compinit When run, it will define a few utility functions, arrange for all the necessary shell functions to be autoloaded, and will then re-bind all keys that do completion to use the new system.
Same problem with debian unstable, Ubuntu jaunty, both ship zsh 4.3.9. I know of multiple people with different configurations.
After reading http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514152 I added
zstyle ':completion:*' special-dirs true
to my config and now everything works fine again.
Put this into your ~/.zshrc:
autoload -Uz compinit
compinit
There is also a project with zsh functions/configurations for Mac OS X on http://code.google.com/p/zsh-templates-osx/ . Personally I think it's an overkill to use the whole package. But found it useful to cherry pick some tricks, functions, completions etc. and create my own .zshrc
In fact I now discovered that the problem does not seem to come from the configuration. When using a .zshrc which only contains
autoload -Uz compinit
compinit
The tab-completion works as intended for cd ..<TAB> when using the default Mac OS X Zsh (4.3.4). But with the MacPorts Zsh (4.3.9) the tab-completion only works for other folders and not for ..
