Something's wrong in the following attempt:

function! StarFC(ArgLead, CmdLine, CursorPos)

let s:myarg = '*' . a:ArgLead . '*'
let s:foo = globpath(&path, s:myarg )
"echo s:foo
return s:foo

endfunction

command! -nargs=* -complete=custom,StarFC Tryf :find <args>

The echo shows expected results for

:call StarFC("fragment", "foo", 5)

But those results do not show up as matching suggestions for the following:

:Tryf fragment

What's the error?

Thanks,
