Instead of

$ zz /jidanni_backups/da<TAB>
Display all 113 possibilities? (y or n) n

and then finally showing

$ zz /jidanni_backups/dan_home_bkp

how about doing the expansion first, so entering
$ zz /jidanni_backups/da<TAB> would then change into
$ zz /jidanni_backups/dan_home_bkp with below it the question
Display all 113 possibilities? (y or n)
