Hey! I get stuck trying to implement completion script for strings containing
two parts for completion delimited by '%' sign. For example, `cmd opt%arg`.
The problem is that, if i hit tab key, when cursor is behind delimeter, bash
eats first part of string leaving `cmd arg`. I just can't understand why, for
example `cmd -opt=arg` works just fine, and `cmd opt%arg` is not. What is the
difference?
I also wrote the simple script to demonstrate the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------
_zz()
{
COMPREPLY=()
local cur="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}"
if [[ "$cur" == ?*%* ]]; then
cur="${cur#*%}"
COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W 'abc bbb cde' -- "$cur" ) )
return 0
fi
compopt -o nospace
COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W 'xxx yyy zzz' -- "$cur") )
} && complete -F _zz zz
---------------------------------------------------------
'_init_completion -n %' does not solve the issue either.
