in reply to Tab completion for mundane input in perl
This can be done with Term::ReadLine.
Take a look at this wise reply of shmem: Re: Autocomplete in perl console application
Update:Some sample code using another module, Term::Complete. Tested under Cygwin console.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Term::Complete; my %hash = ( key1 => 'value1', key2 => 'value2', anotherkey => 'value3', fourthone => 'value4', ); my $user_input = Term::Complete::Complete('Try to input hash key: ', k +eys %hash);
Regards,
Luke
