Feature Request: bash completion #75

Closed robEllenberg closed 7 years ago

robEllenberg commented 8 years ago

It would be nice to be able to complete options and arguments as with grep. The help listing is handy for looking up options / usages, but it would speed up typing to be able to directly complete them.

The repository now contains a bash completion script: https://github.com/svent/sift/blob/master/sift-completion.bash The script uses sift to parse its own options and supported types instead of hard-coding them, so the completion script should work with upcoming versions of sift without the need to update the bash completion script itself.
