FW: bash completion (was: RE: Units)


Gah!  I meant to send this to the list but I replied and so it went to
Earnie instead.  Sorry about that...

Okay, I could be really wrong here but from what I can see,
http://cygwin.com/setup.html doesn't mention any "Shell Utils" category.
What it does quite clearly state is, "Please do not invent a new category
without checking with the cygwin-apps mailing list first".  Does that mean
that we should consider that to be a proposal for a new category? :)

I think that `category: Utils' is too generic.  I'd prefer Misc but
that's reserved.  How about `category: Shell Utils'?
