I have a completion function that when executed should supply
no extra space after the option is given (on pressing <tab>).
Ideally it should append an underscore instead.
How would I achieve that (just for this function and not globally)?
thanks.

When calling compadd, pass the -S option and possibly the -r option.
There is a partial example under the -r option description in the
manual. For your specific case, probably you want:
compadd -S _ -r '_ \t\n' ...
(replacing "..." with other options and potential matches, etc.)

I want to set up completion rules for the second argument
and not the first which appears to eb the default.
How would i do this?
Thanks

Could you provide an example command line to illustrate what you
intend to have happen?
For example, given a command line such as:
% roger dodger codger
Do you mean:
(1) The completion for "roger" is invoked, but the set of matches for
"codger" is not the same as the set of matches for "dodger"; or
(2) The completion for "dodger" should be invoked (as if "roger" were
not present) in order to generate matches for "codger"; or
(3) Some other thing entirely.
If (1), the best answer may be different if the matches for "codger"
are purely based on its position on the command line, or if they may
depend on what appears as the word in the "dodger" position.
