This should hopefully put a nail in the built-in tab completion coffin.
The
edit,load,save, andshellcommand now all support local file system path completion in a manner very similar to the Bash shell.In additional, the
shellcommand also supports shell command completion in a manner very similar to Bash.It is also easy to re-use these completer methods for tab completion of your own custom commands. The python_scripting.py example has been updated to show one way of how this can be achieved.
Emulating most of the Bash logic was dramatically more complicated than I would have imagined ;-) Thanks to Kevin Van Brunt for a lot of help with testing and fine-tuning the logic.
