pip-bash-completion's Issues

pip completion not working

When I do this pip [TAB] the result is pip ^[[01;31m^[[K.

I'm running on on OSX mavrics, bash version 4.2.45.

Tell me if I can help, I'd really like it working.

what is the advantage over 'pip completion --bash'

The pip documentation says that the output of pip completion --bash can simply be put in the bashrc to enable autocompletion. The generated code is:

_pip_completion() {
    COMPREPLY=( $( COMP_WORDS="${COMP_WORDS[*]}" \
                   COMP_CWORD=$COMP_CWORD \
                   PIP_AUTO_COMPLETE=1 $1 ) )
}
complete -o default -F _pip_completion pip

It works for me. Your script is somewhat longer. What are the differences between your and pips completion?
