Opt in to this secret world using
set wildchar=0
" already the default, but remove if non-zero existing config:
set wildcharm=0
now you can map 'wildmode' just like any mode:
cnoremap <tab> <c-z>
function! Spacey()
return getcmdline()[-1:] == "/" ? "\<bs>" : ""
endfunc
cnoremap <expr> / wildmenumode() ? Spacey()."/<c-z>" : "/"
Possibly asked questions:
What about backwards compatibility?
====
Just do nothing and your existing 'wildchar' and 'wildcharm' will keep working.
Doesn't `<c-z>` mean suspend?
====
Not in cmdline mode. If it would then the recommended wildcharm would not
have been `<c-z>` to start with.
My config relies on `:<c-z>` being a synonym to `:<nop>`!
====
just no.
