Ingo, i agree that sometimes you need to keep stuff clean and readable and etc, but if you are at a point that your shell doesn't offer you 'basic' features (present in almost every other shell) that *improves* your productivity and you need to use another shell for that, then you've lost. I, for one, welcome the ability to easily define such completions, especially for ssh hosts when you have to manage dozens of them. Landry
