Comment #1 on issue 393 by hgabreu: XMonad.Prompt.Shell should use user-defined searchPredicate http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=393 I've managed to set up Shell the way I wanted, which is ignoring case. It may help anyone willing to correct/enhance XMonad.Prompt.Shell, I don't do it myself because I'm very bad at haskell and don't how to do it right, flexible, etc. I copied X.P.Shell getShellCompl and commandCompletionFunction to my config (attached) and changed them to this: getShellCompl cmds s | s == "" || last s == ' ' = return [] | otherwise = do f <- fmap lines $ runProcessWithInput "bash" [] ("bind 'set completion- ignore-case on'; compgen -A file " ++ encodeOutput s ++ "\n") ...the rest of the function is the same... commandCompletionFunction cmds str | '/' `elem` str = [] | otherwise = filter ((\x y -> map toLower x `isPrefixOf` map toLower y) str) cmds Oh! I don't think anyone will ever try this config as is, but is one does, change the layoutHook because it won't run ok. I edited MouseResizableTile here to play with SubLayouts.
