ch-completion.bash7
Tab completion for the charliecloud command line
Usage
$ source ch-completion.bash
Overview
ch-completion.bash provides tab completion for the charliecloud command line. Currently, tab completion is available for Bash users for the executables ch-image, ch-run, and ch-convert.
We do not currently install the file if Charliecloud is built from source (see issue #1842). In this case, source it from the Charliecloud source code:
$ source $CHARLIECLOUD_SOURCE_PATH/bin/ch-completion.bash
If you installed with a distribution package, the procedure is probably nicer. See your distro’s docs if you installed a package.)
Disable completion with the utility function ch-completion added to your environment when the above is sourced:
$ ch-completion --disable

- •
-
Bash ≥ 4.3.0
