Re: [tahoe-dev] zsh completer

Caching would be enough and zsh provide such capabilities. Yesterday I've dug into docs but they are pretty bad (or I'm just dumb), I've found no examples of real custom completion via external function only samples of using internal ones. The only hope is to lurk into built-in functions though the

Yes, I do. It's better than nothing, if you don't want to use it just don't press TAB while typing tahoe path. Or don't set up this completer at all. I used to this, some servers are really slow even via ssh, but it's anyway better to slowly complete remote paths than to remember it and type them b

I didn't mean to say I thought it would be bad for you to write a zsh completer if that's what you want to do. I see what you mean about problems when nodes go away and locked up processes. But I see that as an argumentto fix the timeouts rather than to avoid mounting. pgpoqcRouEDd2.pgp Descr

I guess we have a misunderstanding here. I don't propose any changes in tahoe itself. There are problems with mounting I already mentioned before in this list and trac (http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1138), don't know whether they are fixed now because I have very little grid of 7 pee

While I certainly agree with the notion of examining how tahoe and traditional filesystems differ and designing interfaces to bridge the gap, the current situation could be significantly improved by programming effort without having to solve those lofty issues. I'm sure most people on the list kn
