CLI Getting Started Completions Zsh

`ed completions zsh`

Prints the zsh completion script on stdout so you can place it yourself.

ed completions zsh

No options of its own; --help and --version are generated. What it prints is byte for byte what install would have written, so redirecting it into the right directory is a complete substitute for installing, minus the profile edit and the recorded path.

Examples

ed completions zsh
ed completions zsh > ~/.zsh/completions/_ed

The script starts with #compdef ed edh edith and defines _ed_complete, which shells out to ed __complete --index $((CURRENT-1)) -- "${words[@]}", treats a line of #files as a call to _files, and passes everything else to compadd. It handles being loaded either as an autoloaded function or sourced directly.
