bash“自动完成”（通过TAB TAB）条目可以着色/格式化吗？

Question

Background:

The "autocomplete" feature I am talking about is when you half-type a command or filename in bash, if you press TAB twice it will print out suggestions.

Question:

The entries output looks allot like the default ls behavior.

How could I override this to give it different colors or format (like ls )?

EDIT: Copy paste of Answer on UnixStackExchange - vote for it there!

In bash 4.3 and later you can add

set colored-stats on

to ~/.inputrc .

See http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/rluserman.html :

colored-stats

If set to ` on ', Readline displays possible completions using different colors to indicate their file type. The color definitions are taken from the value of the LS_COLORS environment variable. The default is ` off '.

You can use http://geoff.greer.fm/lscolors/ to generate both LS_COLORS (which is used by GNU ls and colored-stats ) and LSCOLORS‏ (which is used by BSD ls ).

Answer 1

Append set colored-stats on to your input-rc file.

[[ -f $INPUTRC ]] && echo set colored-stats on >> $INPUTRC

Or if you have it in the default location:

echo set colored-stats on >> ~/.inputrc

Then restart bash.

That's it.
