Jun 3, 2019 at 19:58	comment	added	Jeffery To		"Ending" the function definition string is on purpose; the point is to include arguments from the outer function into the `COMP_WORDS` array. If we use `make-completion-wrapper _apt_get _apt_get_install apt-get install` as an example, after `shift 2`, `$@` contains `apt-get install`. The function definition includes `apt-get install` (the two literal words) when assigning `COMP_WORDS`.
