Hello all, Does anyone know who maintains the Ruby Readline extension? I'm using Readline in a Ruby application I have written to provide a console interface and I have a suggestion for the extension. It's possible to specify a proc that, given the current string a user has entered before hitting tab, Readline will use to do some command completion. Most often, the proc parses through an array of command names and/or directory and file names to see if the given string matches any of them. This works just fine. Readline also lets you specify a character to append to the end of the string after command completion has succeeded (i.e. a space after a matched command or a '/' after a matched directory). This is where my problem comes in. In the command completion proc, I'm providing an array comprised of available commands in the application as well as a list of possible directories given the string provided (i.e. Dir[str + '*']). Thus, depending on what the string is determined to be (a command, a directory, or a file), I'd like to assign either a space or a '/' as the append character. The easiest way I see to do this is to be able to provide a proc to the Readline.completion_append_character variable rather than a string, and have the completed command string passed to the proc. This way, one can determine if the string is a command, a directory, or a file and return the appropriate append string. -- Thanks! Bryan -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
