I have a function 'cs' that roughly looks like 'cd /some/prefix/$*',
that I would like to have completion for. Any tips? (For some reason,
non-trivial completions never seem to want to work for me :-(.)
IOW, if /some/prefix has the directories 'foo' and 'bar', I would like:
$ cs b<tab>
...to complete to...
$ cs bar
I've tried this and it doesn't work:
complete -C 'cd /some/prefix && compgen -d "$@"' cs
In fact, this doesn't seem to work either, meaning, generates no
completions:
complete -C 'compgen -d' cs
...which implies that either the doc fails to explain how to use
'complete -C', or else it just plain doesn't work.
Note that compgen works as expected, I just can't get anything to work
with 'complete -C'.
