Bugzilla Bug 171381

zsh-completion currently doesn't support eselect.

I have written an _eselect function that does the work. I will attach it to
this bug.

It doesn't support every options of eselect (e.g the "--global" in "eselect
bashcomp list --global"), but it supports as much as the bash-completion
equivalent does.

Please comment, and if you find it acceptable, include it in the zsh-completion
package.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run zsh
2. type eselect <tab>
Actual Results:  
file completion occurs

Expected Results:  
eselect modules completion should have occurred

a better zsh completion function for eselect

I rewrote it because it was badly written. Here it is.

Mamoru, how does this script look to you? Would you want to include it in the
main zsh-completion package? Or would you rather we package it with eselect?

The code is not good because, it doesn't work at least on gentoo/freebsd
because of the sed command,

I'll try to remove sed and use a pure zsh way to do the job.

Anyway, I think this should be incorporated in zsh-completion, because
zsh-completion already provides the completion for most of the gentoo tools.

Version without sed

Here is a new version based on David's one which avoid the use of sed.

Also remove the french header :).

please test it (I can only test on gentoo/freebsd)

In zsh completion function, it is better to use built-in function each time it
is possible (sed for example is not always portable)
