Bash-completion is currently supporting bash >= 3.2. See also the README file: "Use the full power of bash >= 3.2. We no longer support earlier bash versions, so you may as well use all the features of that version of bash to optimise your code. However, be careful when using features added since bash 3.2, since not everyone will be able to use them. Be ESPECIALLY careful of using features exclusive to 4.x, as many people are still using 3.x. For example, extended globs often enable you to avoid the use of external programs, which are expensive to fork and execute, so do make full use of those: ?(pattern-list) - match zero or one occurrences of patterns *(pattern-list) - match zero or more occurrences of patterns +(pattern-list) - match one or more occurrences of patterns @(pattern-list) - match exactly one of the given patterns !(pattern-list) - match anything except one of the given patterns" Greetings, Freddy Vulto http://fvue.nl _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list Bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
