completion_append_character=(p1)
public
Specifies a character to be appended on completion. Nothing will be appended if an empty string (“”) or nil is specified.
For example:
require "readline" Readline.readline("> ", true) Readline.completion_append_character = " "
Result:
> Input "/var/li". > /var/li Press TAB key. > /var/lib Completes "b" and appends " ". So, you can continuously input "/usr". > /var/lib /usr
NOTE: Only one character can be specified. When “string” is specified, sets only “s” that is the first.
require "readline" Readline.completion_append_character = "string" p Readline.completion_append_character # => "s"
Raises NotImplementedError if the using readline library does not support.
