echo 'set completion-ignore-case On' >> ~/.inputrc

also idk does zsh do this automatically? don’t think i’ve ever had this problem except on legacy AF servers

i mean… unless you don’t tab complete, but then who doesn’t spam tab 30 times every keystroke?

Or up-arrow a bazillion time because you probably have it SOMEWHERE in the buffer, surely.

How does that handle languages that have different rules for capitalization? For example I and i are not the same letter in Turkish.

[–] MerfMerf@feddit.nu 1 points 1 year ago

Don't know actually, never used a language like that. But should be easy enough to undo should one test it and end up not liking how it handles it.

I believe that type of stuff is specified in your locale, so it's possible that it would do the right thing if you've set your language to Turkish. Please try it and let us know though :)
