Hi,
I am trying to use an external bash complete program using the bashcompinit
auto completion function.
The external auto complete program needs the two environment variables
COMP_POINT
export COMP_LINE
In zsh/functions/bashcompinit those two variables are not exported.
If I add
export COMP_POINT
export COMP_LINE
there everything works as expected.
Question: How do I use bashcompinit correctly so the external program
can access the two environment variables?
Thanks,
Frank

It ought to be good enough to export them only from _bash_complete while
they are needed.

Right, that's what I tried. I didn't know about the -x switch for local.
Thanks.
OK, so it should be fixed in bashcompinit. Do you send that patch?
Thanks,
Frank
