Status: Open Priority: 3 Submitted By: Sung Pae (guns-guest) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: [PATCH] Make BASH_COMPLETION_DIR an array Distribution: None Originally reported in: None Milestone: None Status: None Original bug number: Initial Comment: Hi, very glad to see progress on the bash-completion project! I have been rolling my own version of Ian McDonald's bash-completion with my shell environment / software distribution application, and would love to see some of my favorite changes incorporated into the main tree. One of those is setting BASH_COMPLETION_DIR as an array so that multiple bash completion directories can be sourced. This is a simple change, has no ill effects for regular one-directory use, and allows admins to source /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d, /opt/*/etc/bash_completion.d, et cetera, as well as the main completion directory. This would also encourage the user to create separate files for completions, instead of using ./.bash_completion; I imagine this will be helpful in the future, when dynamic loading of completion files is realized. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=413095&aid=311708&group_id=100114 _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
