<tt>Hello,</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>I feel a lack in bash completion around variable
environment setting. Contrary to variable read, in which case the
variable starts with a $ sign, variable set syntax is done without
the dollar sign.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>In command lines like:</tt><tt><br>
</tt><br>
<tt>> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/somewhere ./my_app</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=</tt><tt>/path/to/somewhere</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
LD_LIBRARY_PATH won't be completed.<br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>First, I wonder if it exists, and it doesn't work because
of some misconfiguration of mine.<br>
</tt><tt><br>
If it does not exists, is it something you would like to see in
bash-completion? If yes, I would need some simple support to
start, like: what is the right completion file to add the general
case (for export completion, obviously, I'd look to
completion/export).</tt><tt> In a first time, it could be
something very simple, based on `env` output to list all exported
environment variable.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
