Feature request: support case-insensitive directory match

[kergoth]

This is supported by https://github.com/vigneshwaranr/bd with an argument in its alias: "To enable case-insensitive directory name matching, use -si instead of -s in the alias.". Of course, one could enable case-insensitive tab-completion in general and use the zsh-bd tab-completion for this, but one might not want it enabled everywhere.

but one might not want it enabled everywhere.

Is this actually the case for you? Why would you not want this in general? Look how useful it is. :)

[Tarrasch]

Of course, if you want to implement it and add tests for this and make it not the default behavior. I'll happily merge it. Same goes for #11. :)

[kergoth]

Fair enough, thanks for the quick responses.

[Tarrasch]

Thanks for opening these issues. I'm happy you care for the best of the project. :)

I spent some time working out how to enable case-insensitive matching just for bd, so posting in case it's useful for others.
To enable case-insensitive matches change the following line in bd.zsh:

compctl -V directories -K _bd bd

to

compctl -M 'm:{a-zA-Z}={A-Za-z} r:|=* l:|=* r:|=*' -V directories -K _bd bd

The -M parameter lets you pass a custom match specification for auto completion. The match spec here is the same one used to enable global case-insensitive matching in oh-my-zsh.
