on Bash

To install the completion, you should either, source the main script on your current terminal or source the main script on your bash configuration.

Direct use

From ArduPilot root directory, simply use :

source ./Tools/completion/completion.bash

And now completion works from your terminal instance. If you close the terminal, the completion feature is removed.

Permanent use

Edit you .bashrc file, it is on your Home directory but it is a hidden file (CTRL+H on Ubuntu to reveal them). Then put at the end of the file :

source PATH_TO_ARDUPILOT_DIRECTORY/Tools/completion/completion.bash

where PATH_TO_ARDUPILOT_DIRECTORY is the path to ArduPilot directory.

Usage

You can now abuse of your TAB key on waf and sim_vehicle.py call ! See the video at the end.

On ZSH

Zsh don't allow live loading of completion. So you have to source the completion script in your .zshrc file. Like for Bash, you will find it hiding on your home ! Put at the end of the file :

source PATH_TO_ARDUPILOT_DIRECTORY/Tools/completion/completion.zsh

where PATH_TO_ARDUPILOT_DIRECTORY is the path to ArduPilot directory. Notice the difference, the extension is .zsh !
