Fails to suggest past first word

[a-m-s]

I'm sure it used to continue to find suggestions after I typed the command name and got into the options, but no longer.

Now, as soon as I press space, it somehow duplicates the command at the end of the line, and refuses to suggest anything useful. Pressing up does suggest what I'm looking for (presumably that's history-substring-search though).

I'm using zsh-syntax-highlighting and zsh-history-substring-search, but I've followed all the directions in the README.

I now tried it with the other plugins disabled. Same problem: it will autosuggest the first word, but no further.

Same problem even if i have no plugin (I'm using zsh 5.0.8 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0))

My .zshrc configuration is

I'm not familiar with zplug. Can you confirm you still have the problem with a more minimal configuration?

Try installing with:

$ git clone git://github.com/tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions

and confirming you have the latest version:

$ git -C ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions rev-parse --short HEAD
011f542

and using the following .zshrc:

source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh

Then start a new terminal session and confirm the problem persists.

It seems to work for me with the most simple setup (start zsh -f and source the plugin manually), but not with my regular setup, even with other plugins disabled. I'll have to do a bit more investigation to get a minimal reproducer.

I'll have to do a bit more investigation to get a minimal reproducer.

That would be very helpful. Thanks!

[a-m-s]

Here's the minimal reproducer:

$ zsh -f
% setopt sh_word_split
% source zsh-autosuggestions.zsh 

Then type "source" (with the trailing space), to autosuggest the previous command, and you should see this:

% source source

The sh_word_split tells to zsh to expand parameters the same way that bash does. It looks like you ought to add some quotes round variable parameters in your script somewhere.

👍 @a-m-s. Thanks for tracking this down. This issue should now be fixed with v0.2.8.

[a-m-s]

I still see the problem??

$ git describe --tags
v0.2.8
$ zsh -f
% source zsh-autosuggestions.zsh 
% setopt sh_word_split          
% source source

[ericfreese]

Ok... let's try this one more time. Give v0.2.9 a shot.

[a-m-s]

Success! 👍
