Finally I done it. Installed bash5 in parallel with the one from the system.
It's a lot better. After some try and retry I added something simple.
_commandcomp()
{
local w
w="$2"
local CMDS=$( _get_custom_commands )
COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "$CMDS" "$w") )
}
complete -I -F _commandcomp
Now starting to type a command at an emtpy prompt and pressing tab, I have
completion proposals only from my custom commands. That's good.
When I was trying to achieve that, by accident I entered a colon ":" at an empty
prompt. I expected that it will do nothing but in fact that lists all files in
the current directory.
$ :<TAB><TAB>
bash-5.0-patches/ bash.SlackBuild~ slack-desc
bash-5.0.tar.lz bash_manpages.patch.gz
bash.SlackBuild doinst.sh.gz
Is this an expected behaviour ? It does not seem to reach the -I part.
I tried other characters but for the moment just this one is doing that.
