Purpose
Path autocompletion wasn't working when using
~
as a shortcut for the home directory. The issue occurred because the tilde was expanded to /home/user, which caused the suggestion to no longer match the input (thus preventing the autocompletion from appearing in the suggestion list).To fix this, I replaced the custom
parentAndBase
function, which handled path splitting in a more complex way, withfilepath.Split
from the standardpath/filepath
package. This prevents tilde expansion while keeping the expected behavior for path splitting.Testing
The issue has been tested manually on Linux.
