As for colour syntax highlighting - this is because HP-UX uses
vi , not
vim - vi doesn't have syntax highlighting - this is a VI iMproved feature..... As long as you're using an ANSI compliant terminal then colour will "work" - (try
my "cecho" script )
And as for tab filename completion, this is a shell issue. The public domain Korn Shell (pdksh) has a vi-tabcomplete option, but the "real" ksh as supplied with HP-UX does not. You can either use ESC twice, or ESC then \ to do completion.

Hi all,
I recently discovered the ! command. I think it's great that !cd ? will match the last command that began with cd ?. However, for ! to be particularly useful to me (for now anyway) it would be nice if there was a tab completion option available (as with the cd command). Does anyone know... (3 Replies)

Is it possible to set up my .cshrc so that a single tab attempts to autocomplete, while a double tab gives a list of all possible options. In other words, I want it to work like bash in this regard.

I really like tcsh's:

Does such a thing exist in bash? If... (2 Replies)

NAME
fizsh - friendly interactive zshell.
SYNOPSIS
fizsh [OPTIONS]... [ARGUMENTS]...
DESCRIPTION
Fizsh is a front end to zsh. Fizsh provides zsh with interactive syntax-highlighting and a MATLAB-like history-search. Fizsh is intended to
look and feel similar to fish. A distinguishing feature is that fizsh can handle Bourne compatible syntax. This is because fizsh is a front
end to zsh. Fish uses its own syntax.
CONFIGURATION
$HOME/.fizsh is the directory where fizsh keeps its configuration files. The file $HOME/.fizsh/.fizshrc serves as the user's local startup
script. Local customizations, such as aliases and functions, can be added here. $HOME/.fizsh/.fizshrc allows the same syntax as
$HOME/.zshrc under zsh. $HOME/.fizsh/.fizsh_history is default name of fizsh's history file.
The other files in $HOME/.fizsh are installed by /usr/bin/fizsh. In order to reinstall these files use: /usr/bin/fizsh -r or /usr/bin/fizsh
--reinstall.
Compared to the default configuration of zsh, fizsh additionally sets the options "histignorealldups", "histignorespace",
"histreduceblanks", "incappendhistory", "interactivecomments", "promptsubst", "correct" and "nobeep".
For further configuration details consult zsh's man pages.
INVOCATION
Fizsh is meant to be invoked without options and without command-line arguments.
The only supported command-line options are "--version", "--help", "--login", "--reinstall", "-v", "-h", "-l" and "-r". "--version" or "-v"
yields fizsh's version number. "--help" or "-h" causes fizsh to print brief usage information. "--login" or "-l" cause fizsh to be a login
shell. "--reinstall" or "-r" will reinstall some of fizsh's configuration files (see above).
If invoked with other command-line options and/or arguments fizsh will silently revert to zsh.
BUGS
There are no known bugs at the moment. Bug reports, bug fixes and other comments are welcome.
