I found a much easier solution:
- COMPREPLY=($(compgen -P "${2-}" -S "${4- }" -W "$1" -- "${3-$cur}"))
+ COMPREPLY=($(compgen -P "${2-}" -S "${4- }" -W "$(quote "$1")"
-- "${3-$cur}"))
But what about the people that don't have bash-completion?
BTW:
quote()
{
local quoted=${1//\'/\'\\\'\'}
printf "'%s'" "$quoted"
}
