NAME

demo-getopt-long-complete - Script to demonstrate Getopt::Long::Complete

VERSION

This document describes version 0.19 of demo-getopt-long-complete (from Perl distribution Getopt-Long-Complete), released on 2014-12-18.

SYNOPSIS

Activate completion using (can be put in your bash startup file):

 % complete -C demo-getopt-long-complete demo-getopt-long-complete

Test completion:

 % demo-getopt-long-complete <tab>
 % demo-getopt-long-complete -<tab>
 % demo-getopt-long-complete --int 1 -<tab>
 # and so on

COMPLETION

This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.

bash

To activate bash completion for this script, put:

 complete -C demo-getopt-long-complete demo-getopt-long-complete

in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is recommended, however, that you install shcompgen which allows you to activate completion scripts for several kinds of scripts on multiple shells. Some CPAN distributions (those that are built with Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GenShellCompletion) will even automatically enable shell completion for their included scripts (using shcompgen) at installation time, so you can immadiately have tab completion.

tcsh

To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:

 complete demo-getopt-long-complete 'p/*/`demo-getopt-long-complete`/'

in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).

other shells

For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.
