pikasay is a pain in the autocompletion butt

[kubrickfr]

pikaur -Vq
Pikaur v1.26.1
Pacman v6.1.0 - libalpm v14.0.0 - pyalpm v0.10.6

I find it very annoying that pikasay forces me to type 5 characters before I can tab-autocomplete the pikaur command vs 3 before (years of habit).

I know it sounds silly, but it's actually annoying. Feel free to close and ignore, I'll move on, but I really think pikasay has a too frivolous purpose to justify this.

This is exact reason why I came here today.

pika-Tab is muscle memory now, please don't break it.

On Zsh, you can add this line to your .zshrc:

zstyle ':completion:*' ignored-patterns 'pikasay'

On bash, it seems like this should do the trick although I have not tested it:

EXECIGNORE=$(which pikasay)
