Yes, I had thought about this, too, and than forgot to mention
it. There are other things I forgot to mention:
- we could, of course, add some more of these: aliases, bindkeys,
compctls (a problem with the first two are the different types:
normal/global and widgets/string)
- as you might have seen, I haven't changed anything to use this,
but the example completion code could use `$commands' to get rid
of the `$(whence -p ...)', it could use `$parameters' in
`_parameters' and probably other things I currently can't think
of.
The only support needed in the core is to be able to give special scan
functions.
Bye
Sven
