LanX has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi

I heard a talk at a opensource conf this weekend about automatizing tab completion support for CLI-tools in various shells.

Now I was wondering if there is already a solution to generate the complete-configs from various option modules like Getopt::Long. Hence generating the out-of-the box for many CLI tools.

Disclaimer: I've never used Getopt::Long and the Pod is vast.

update

Dear Rubberduck, those are blessed who know how to search CPAN ... ;-)

Cheers Rolf
