Recent completion changes don't allow fuzzy matching

[rodfersou]

For now there is this workaround that seems to work for everybody: #1398 (comment). Have a look and report any issues.

Related: #1398 #5435.

When I try to change directory:

$ cd /s/s.s.l <tab>

I expect that it completes as:

$ cd /srv/sc.social.like

but it is not working.. I don't know where to check this bug.. it worked fine in my old ubuntu, but this week I start using arch linux, and this bug is driving me crazy..

This will be the issue to track this problem, for everybody that has it. So please subscribe for updates.

A workaround from this post:

Add the following to your .zshrc

# 0 -- vanilla completion (abc => abc)
# 1 -- smart case completion (abc => Abc)
# 2 -- word flex completion (abc => A-big-Car)
# 3 -- full flex completion (abc => ABraCadabra)
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list '' \
  'm:{a-z\-}={A-Z\_}' \
  'r:[^[:alpha:]]||[[:alpha:]]=** r:|=* m:{a-z\-}={A-Z\_}' \
  'r:|?=** m:{a-z\-}={A-Z\_}'
