Show possible completions in zsh (possible-completions in bash)
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I have recently switched to zsh from bash. Deep in my inputrc, I had "e[/": possible-completions set. This allowed me to see all completions at a given point, without applying them. This was really useful if I had typed ls folder/ and wanted to see what is in the folder. However, I can't seem to find this feature in zsh.
I actually cannot even find any mention of the option in bash on google, either, but it is in the man pages.
Is there any way to use this feature in zsh?

In zsh, a command that you can bind to a key is called a widget. There are several built-in widgets for completion, including list-choices, which I think is what you're looking for. It's bound to Ctrl+D by default.
But zsh offers a lot more possibilities than bash, so you may want to explore a bit. There are a few basic options related to completion, and then there's a huge completion system that is very powerful, but can be hard to configure from scratch.
