New submission from John Rouillard:
GNU readline can do tab completion. It would be nice to have this added to roundup-admin.
Completion can include:
command name
any classname parameter including the classname part of a designator
class properties when a command specifies a class. E.G. complete 'ti' -> 'title='
for 'create issue ti'
'pragma' setting name
directory/file paths: tracker home directory, export/import directories,
genconfig/updateconfig filenames
'restore' possibly list only retired designators?
'security' complete role names
'get' is a weird command. It take property first then designators. So tab completion
on property is probably not helpful as we can't narrow it to completing within a class.
For example:
set <tab complete classes><no tab complete id> <tab complete properties>=<no tab complete>
