Dear all,
I've been searching around for some hours now, but did not find a solution.

Is there a way to customize the tab completion behavior of R?

In more detail. We have a R packages called bayeos. This package allows users to access a time series database via XML-RPC directly from R. The time series are organized in folders. There is a function in the packages called "bayeos.cd" allowing the user to change the "time series folder" e.g.

> bayeos.cd('Local Gateway')
All Folders / Local Gateway /
200004  parent_folder   ..
200224   messung_ordner          Bayreuth Meteo Board
...

When typing

bayeos.cd('

and pressing tab the filename completion hooks in which gives no reasonable completions. So my question. Is there a way to replace the filename completion by a custom completion function just for a specific package function?

Best regards

Stefan
