Thanks! Out of curiosity: have you tried out Fish? It seems like it would provide you with autocomplete out-of-the-box, without needing to install anything else (e.g. Oh My Zsh). There are potential downsides as well (e.g. it isn’t POSIX-compliant), but I’m beginning to wonder if it makes sense to have a default shell for interactive use, and then another one for scripting.
