Hi Leonardo,
For the first issue, I think what you're seeing is that the completions are
initially not loaded. If you repeat your experiment twice, you'll see it
behaves the way you expect the second time, which is that explicit completions
are preferred to filenames. That is, after a tab, autosuggestions should be
more sensible because ifconfig's completions will be loaded.
There's some code which attempts to autoload completions for autosuggestions,
but it may not be working in all cases. Please open an issue at the github
page. Thanks!
For the second issue, there's a way to indicate that a particular option should
not do file completion, but not a way to indicate that the command itself
should not take files. That seems like it would be a reasonable addition as
well.
Thanks for taking the time to report this,
_fish
