zsh

I'm using wajig to install packages, however when i've changed my shell to zsh it turned out that zsh doesn't list all packages in completion list, for ex.

apt-get install octave[TAB]

(about 70 completions) but when i try

wajig install octave[TAB]

or

aptitude install octave[TAB]

zsh shows only 19 completions

other shells i've tested (bash, fish) shows all ~70 completions in all 3 cases. So is there any way to 'fix' this completion in zsh?

I'm a bash user willing to switch to a more friendly and advanced shell. I read a lot of good things about zsh, but I gave a quick test at fish and it seems great too. Both seem very close in term of features, what is your opinion about those two shells especially as regards shell programming? >>> More

I have "v" aliased to "vim */.cpp */.hpp */.cxx" Problem is, if I'm in a directory without any .cxx files, zsh treats this as an error. Is there anyway to tell zsh to create the absence of */*.cxx files as "" instead of an error? >>> More
