Hi
If I save a command like,
echo "vim $(which $1)">bin/whichv
(find the pathname of an executable with builtin `which'
and then edit that pathname)
Now at the command line I want to type
$ bin/whichv comm<tab>
I want to have the completions that `which' would have.
How would I do this?

Hi,
Why not use this instead?
vim =comm<tab>
