Somewhat related to the above post about working with local files..
I have finally fixed TAB completion for local files and dirs in the latest Pkg
Code: Select all
pkg <command> ./path/to/local/file
Code: Select all
pkg <command> ../path/to/local/file
This makes Pkg much nicer to work with when checking, converting, installing (etc) local files - cos you can complete long pkg names and traverse long dir names so much easier (just hit TAB)..
------------
Pkg still keeps it's custom, context-sensitive TAB completion too...
Example, if you type
Code: Select all
pkg repo-list [TAB]
And if you do
Code: Select all
pkg uninstall [TAB]
And if you do
Code: Select all
pkg add gimp[TAB]
...etc..
As far as I am aware, there are not many (if any) other package managers out there with this cool, context-sensitive TAB completion - Pkg can now auto-complete files & dirs properly (like most commands), but also (auto filtered) package names, repo names, build scripts, as well as its own commands & options, and more.
