Subject: Adding new completions to zsh
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2004 20:39:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <opr3ykfw19i4eeqj@mail.oaktech.net> (raw)
Hello,
I've written completion functions for the 'mktap' and 'twistd' command of
the Twisted project, http://twistedmatrix.com and I would like advice on
getting this functionality included in zsh.
The problem I'm facing is keeping the completions in zsh up-to-date.
Twisted development happens at a fairly rapid pace and while command
options aren't changing every day, in my judgement it would be annoying
for our users (many of whom use zsh already) to be stuck with the static
set of completion functionality bundled in any given zsh release.
My idea for allowing greater flexibility is to bundle the actual zsh
completion functionality as part of the Twisted distribution and give zsh
a "stub" that will use the completion functions that are bundled with
Twisted.
Has anyone ever done this before? What do you all think?
-Eric
P.S. maybey this should this be on zsh-dev, but I assume everyone reads
zsh-users.
