  13. ! I want something like:
  14. ! 
  15. !      > talk @[TAB]
  16. !      ws1 ws2 ws3 ws4 
  17. !      > talk @ws3
  18. !      > talk @ws3[TAB]
  19. !      user1 user2 user3 user4
  20. !      > talk user1@ws3
  21. ! 
  22. ! One problem is, that when i manage to get the workstations, i don't
  23. ! get the users. I use something like:
  24. ! 
  25. !     complete talk \
  26. !     c/@/\$hosts/ \
  27. !     c/@*/\`finger\ \$:1\ \|\ awk\ \'\{print\ \$1\ \}\'\ \|\ sort\ -u\ \`/ \
  28. !     p/1/\`finger\ \$:1\ \|\ awk\ \'\{print\ \$1\ \}\'\ \|\ sort\ -u\ \`/ \
  29. ! 
  30. ! any hints ?
  31.  
  32. Hmmmmmm.  That seems unworkable.  However, if rwhod is running on the
  33. machines of interest to you, I have the following suggestion for a
  34. completion command:
  35.  
  36.    complete talk 'p?1?`rwho | sed "s/:.*//; s/  */@/" | uniq`?'
