Hi!
Many programs accept as a command-line argument, an option to
specify the address to bind as. Completion functions have either not
been offering completion for the same, or have gone for the much
wider set of _hosts.
I am enclosing a file for a new _bind_addresses function which
completes bind-able addresses got by parsing ifconfig output. I know
the required commands only for Linux, and hence I have defaulted to
_hosts for other systems. Well, something better than nothing! :)
#autoload
local expl
case $OSTYPE in
aix*) _hosts "$@" ;;
darwin*|freebsd*|dragonfly*) _hosts "$@" ;;
irix*) _hosts "$@" ;;
# Couldn't find anything special for linux except for /proc/net/dev
# Is there any proc file which gives the formatted ip?
linux*) ;&
*)
_wanted bind-addresses expl 'bind address' compadd "$@" - \
${${${(M)${(f)"$(ifconfig -a)"}:#*addr:*}##*addr:}%% *}
esac
I am also enclosing a patch for some of the completion functions for
using this function. (I just did a `grep -ri bind *` over the
Completion directory to get possible functions, there may be more)
Apply this patch after the _bittornado cleanup patch in Bug#390048
(Mixed up descriptions in bittorrent completion).
