New feature: CLI-like autocompleter

[guiled]

Is it possible to provide a context to autocompleter in order to suggest word depending on current string. An exemple of what I am talking about

git br would suggest "branch" exec br would suggest "break"

Words would be suggested depending on the whole string

Hello :-),

More than “contextual”, I think we have to classify autocompleters by domains they address. Is it for a CLI-like shell interface?

[guiled]

Yes it is!

I have renamed the issue :-).

First of all, such an autocompleter must (could?) not be aggregated. Should we create an “aggregable” interface to distinguish autocompleters? /cc @jubianchi

@Hywan IMHO, you should not make such decision and let the developper using autocompleters decide wether his autocompleters should or should not be aggregated.

We can(t figure out every use cases so I would let all autocompleters be “aggregable” by default.
