I just had this happen in the gCLI:
I assume the reason I get different results is because mafia could find an unique match in my inventory using the substring I provided, but not in the list of zappable items? However, the error message can be a bit confusing. For instance I'd say it wouldn't be too farfetched of me to assume that I didn't have any zombie mariachi pants in my inventory, if I hadn't checked how many of them I had before doing the zap request. So what I'd like to request is that the zap command returns a list of possible matches in those cases where it can't figure out the exact item you want to zap.
Code:
[COLOR=olive]> inv zombie maria[/COLOR]
zombie mariachi pants (2)
[COLOR=olive]> zap zombie maria[/COLOR]
[COLOR=red][zombie maria] has no matches.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=olive]> zap zombie mariachi[/COLOR]
[COLOR=red][zombie mariachi] has no matches.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=olive]> zap zombie mariachi p[/COLOR]
Zapping zombie mariachi pants...
