That is cool, although I'm not a fan of having it all whitespace-delimited in an unstructured quoted string. docopt completions are static, right? I think it makes more sense to...

I think @faho was saying check the contents of your $HOME folder and not its literal value, ie files on your PC.
I'd be more in favor of a friendly regex-based globbing syntax to address both @silverhook's and @zanchey's requests. It avoids creating an inferior DSL.

I’m reluctant to embrace parser exceptions based off of the command as it would be a major breaking change and will make the mental model *much* more difficult. Someone just...
I agree on the key expansion from a user experience perspective, although depending on how it's implemented, the overhead of the duplicate retrieval could be a pain. Optimizing that should...
It's important to understand the distinction between the shell and the terminal/tty it is executing in. I'm not aware of any standardized escape codes that allow the executed program to...
I think expansion of wildcards should be purely a core shell concern and should not involve completions. It becomes too difficult to reason about if you bring completions into the...
