Fails to detect bash in FreeBSD #14

Closed pjcdawkins closed 9 years ago

pjcdawkins commented 9 years ago

Testing (masochistically) in FreeBSD 10.0, in a bash shell, I get this:


  [RuntimeException]                                                                
  Cannot generate hook for unknown shell type 'sh'. Available hooks are: bash, zsh  

_completion [-g|--generate-hook] [-p|--program="..."] [--shell-type[="..."]]

It works if the user changes his/her shell with chsh

What is sh shell? Is it alias to bash on FreeBSD? If so, then maybe we can alias it in shell detection code as well.

No it's not bash, although it's similar. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sh#end

The problem was that the shell type was detected as sh after I believed I had changed to bash by simply running the command bash. Apparently you have to use chsh bash to change the shell in FreeBSD.

Similar to the point, that auto-complete routines work the same way (e.g. there is complete command)?

In fact you can use --shell-type bash in your hook generation command to generate Bash hook and see if it works. No need to change default shell.
