Code Completion

BashSupport Pro supports code completions of variables, functions, and commands.

Elements of the current file, of files sourced by the current file, of all files sourcing the current file, and of configured shell script libraries, are shown.

Variables

Variables, which are valid at the current position show up in code completion. Variables, which are out of scope are not displayed.

File Paths

File paths are completed, too. If you’re referencing a path where a command is expected, then the popup is shown automatically. But to avoid unnecessary automatic completions, you have to manually invoke code completion for arguments.

Please note, that this is using the paths of the current machine. Make sure, that you’re only using paths, which are also available in the target environment of your script.
