Whilst we wait for that complete redo, here's a duct tape fix:
# Save to /etc/bash_completion.d/qpdf
_qpdf_completions() {
local IFS=$' \t\n'
local cur; cur="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}"
if [[ "${cur}" == -* ]]
then
if [[ ! "${_QPDF_OPTS:-}" ]]
then
_QPDF_OPTS=$(man qpdf 2>/dev/null |
col --no-backspaces |
grep --only-matching --extended-regexp
'\-\-[[:alnum:]-]+|\-[[:alnum:]]+' |
sort --unique |
tr '\n' ' ')
fi
COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "${_QPDF_OPTS}" -- "${cur}") )
return 0
fi
COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -f -X '!*.pdf' -- "${cur}") )
}
complete -F _qpdf_completions qpdf
