You can try this function to make completions for aliases:
function make_completion --argument-names alias command
echo "
function __alias_completion_$alias
set -l cmd (commandline -o)
set -e cmd[1]
complete -C\"$command \$cmd\"
end
" | .
complete -c $alias -a "(__alias_completion_$alias)"
end
use it as follows:
> make_completion aptin "sudo apt-get install"
I do not have aptitude and checked it on pacman:
> make_completion pacs 'pacman -S'
does the job.
The function creates function which calls 'complete -C' for the specified
commandline with alias name substituted.
