We do not directly support zsh users on our system. However, many of our more advanced users enjoy some of the modern and advanced features provided by zsh. One of these users shared a code snippet that he uses in his ~/.zshrc file to autocomplete job id numbers. He is letting us share the code for use to our users who prefer zsh over bash.

.zshrc

_jobs_list() {
qstat | grep $USER | cut -d' ' -f1 | cut -d'.' -f1
}

_jshow_complete() {
if (( CURRENT ==2)); then
jjobs=( $(_jobs_list))
_multi_parts / jjobs
else
_files
fi
}

compdef _jshow_complete showstart jdel checkjob qstat

This code should work on any system that used PBS Torque.

I hope you find it useful,
