Autocompletion

[akhal3d96]

$ dirtree completion prints dirtree-copletion.bash which can be added as a file to /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/dirtree or to be appended to .bashrc file and that will enable the auto-completion feature in bash

Yes but how “dirtree completion” prints “dirtree-completion.bash” ?

dirtree-completion.bash is located at exe directory.

Yes and? Why invoking “dirtree completion” prints it? That should execute “dirtree” not “dirtree-completion”

Executing dirtree completion is supposed to print the bash completion script which are located at exe/dirtree-completion.bash. then it's up to the user whether he wants append this script to his local bash instance at .bashrc or globally /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/dirtree.

Have you tried that command?
