Subject: Convention question regarding completions
Date: Sat, 10 Jan 2009 10:15:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2d460de70901100115x129a6405md5ca6ca8d1629c5c@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi all,
when writing completions, should I XAND only the options
which are really mutually exclusive like
tar x
tar c
or should I XAND the ones which won't work but won't hurt,
either like
--verbose
--quiet
or should I XAND even the ones which become superfluous
like the second option in
deluser --remove-all-files
deluser --remove-home
?
Personally, I lean towards the third, i.e. most inclusive
XAND rule, but I am interested what the others think.
Richard
PS: Just in case it's not clear from context what I mean
by XAND:
'(x)c[create a new archive]'
'(c)x[extract files from an archive]'
