Subject: Q about _arguments
Date: Fri, 7 Apr 2000 16:07:26 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <000f01bfa089$d6fcf910$21c9ca95@mow.siemens.ru> (raw)

In some cases description string for option values is not used. Example
is (part of fetchmail completion - I'll send as soon it is complete -
with trivial "_arguments ..." form):

"(-m)--mda=[set MDA to use for forwarding]::mail delivery
program:_command_names -e" \

and

bor@itsrm2% fetchmail --md=/to/b/p<TAB>

results in

bor@itsrm2% fetchmail --mda=/tools/bin/p
Completing executable file or directory

note, that I'd expect "Completing mail delivery program" here.
