Subject: [ANN] Tab Completition for Ruby

I hope, that I have not reinvented the wheel once again, but I just found
a neat way to make ri behave better. I use a short script to make bash
complete class, method and module names when pressing tab.
 $ ri Array#f<TAB>
I thought there might be some people interested in this. If it is already
common knowledge, I apologize for polluting this newsgroup.

Here is the neccesary code:
___/etc/bash_completition.d/ri___
# Debian GNU/Linux ri completion
# Copyright 2004 Brian Schr�der <mail@brian-schroeder.de>
# License: GNU GPL v2 or later

have ri &&
_ri()
{
	local cur conns
    
	COMPREPLY=()
	cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}

	if [ $COMP_CWORD -eq 1 ]; then
		COMPREPLY=( $(ri -l | grep "^${cur}") )
	fi

	return 0
}
[ "$have" ] && complete -F _ri ri

## based on:
## Debian GNU/Linux pon/poff(1) completion
