-bash: _init_completion: command not found #261

Closed brokosz closed 2 years ago

brokosz commented 2 years ago

tealdeer 1.5.0 installed via homebrew on bash 5.1.16(1) gives the above error when trying to autocomplete. I was able to work around this by changing lines 5 & 6 in the bash completion file from:

local cur prev words cword
 _init_completion || return

To:

local cur prev
_get_comp_words_by_ref cur prev

What happens if you type type _init_completion in your shell?

Do you know what _init_completion and _get_comp_words_by_ref actually do (or in other words, can you explain what your change does)? Unfortunately I know bash completion files only very superficially.

You probably know more about bash completion than I do. 😁 Turns out I was on an old bash-completions package (and why _init_completion didn't work for me) so i'll close this issue. Fwiw - looks like the functions are pretty well documented in here: https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/blob/master/bash_completion#L339
