The "usage" completions are produced from $1 --help
where $1
is the command e.g. ug
or ugrep
, which is then piped through sed
to produce proper output. This might slow on old machines. Perhaps caching the output of $1 --help
should improve performance. Or pre-generating the output. I'll look into that.
ugrep 6.0 on Windows with MSYS2 ugrep is a very useful tool. I often use it with bash autocompletion. I tried on an old laptop. After I input ug --(press double TAB) I need wait more than 3 second to see the output 'Display all 117 possibilities? (y or n)'. And I input ug --no(press double TAB) I also need more than 3 second to see the candidate option list.
While I input awk( or aria2c ) --(press double TAB) I can immediately see the bash autocompletion output. How to make ugrep bash autocompletion faster ?
