Bash completion for ./dasm

Complete symbol names to this solution (D lang version):

• By typing dasm test and then pressing TabTab, you will get a list of all functions.
• By typing dasm test m and then pressing TabTab all functions starting with m will be shown, or in case only one function exists, it will be autocompleted.

File /etc/bash_completion.d/dasm:

# bash completion for dasm
_dasm()
{
    local cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}

    if [[ $COMP_CWORD -eq 1 ]] ; then
    # files
    COMPREPLY=( $( command ls *.o -F 2>/dev/null | grep "^$cur" ) )

    elif [[ $COMP_CWORD -eq 2 ]] ; then
    # functions
    OBJFILE=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD-1]}

    COMPREPLY=( $( command nm --demangle=dlang $OBJFILE | grep " W " | cut -d " " -f 3 | tr "()" "  " | grep "$cur" ) )

    else
    COMPREPLY=($(compgen -W "" -- "$cur"));
    fi
}

complete -F _dasm dasm
