shmesa does not support user controls

[Debraheem]

with shmesa, one can call : shmesa change inlist_main mixing_length_alpha 2
but one can't call: shmesa change inlist_main x_ctrl(1) 2
-> zsh: unknown file attribute: 1

I believe shmesa is missing support for user controls such as: x_ctrl, x_integer_ctrl, x_logical_ctrl

A small hot fix can bring support for these.

The error you show here has to do with your shell parsing the brackets. Does it work if you add quotes shmesa change inlist_main "x_ctrl(1)" 2?

[Debraheem]

it doesn't complain, but it doesn't work either. I tried that and inlist_main x_ctrl\(1\) 2

@VincentVanlaer can you try locally to check that it's not just my os or zsh specific?

Yes, I can reproduce the issue!
