-# Zowe Autocompletion for bash
-
-Autocompletion simplifies composing Zowe CLI commands.
-
-```sh
-zowe <tab><tab>
-```
-displays available options, commands or command groups
-```sh
---available-commands    --response-format-json  <group>                 plugins                 provisioning            zos-files               zos-tso                 zosmf
---help                  --version               config                  profiles                zos-console             zos-jobs                zos-workflows
-vlcvi01@VLCVI01W10:~/workspaces/zowe-cli/autocompletion$ zowe
-```
-
-At first glance it may look that autocompletion does not work because of very slow response time. This is caused by zowe cli performance. Autocompletion script runs `zowe ... --help` in background to extract suggestions.

-
-## Installation
-
-### Linux (Ubuntu)
-1) copy `zowe.bash` file to  `/etc/bash_completion.d/zowe.bash`
-    ```
-    sudo cp zowe.bash /etc/bash_completion.d/zowe.bash
-    ```
-2) start a new `bash` terminal
-
-**NOTE**: files in `/etc/bash_completion.d` do not have to have execute privilege.
-
-If you don't have an access to `/etc/bash_completion.d/`, copy `zowe.bash` file to `~/zowe_autocompletion/zowe.bash` add
-```sh
-. ~/zowe_autocompletion/zowe.bash
-```
-at the end of your `.bashrc` file.
-
-### Mac
-1) enable bash completion on mac because it is not activated by default see instructions:
-https://www.simplified.guide/macos/bash-completion
-
-2) copy `zowe.bash`  file to  `/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/zowe.bash`
-3) start a new `bash` terminal
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> Files in `/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/zowe.bash` do not have to have execute privilege.
-
-### Windows
- * Windows CMD is not supported.
- * WLS is supported  (see Linux)
- * bash via MINGW should work but you need: grep, awk
-
-## Troubleshooting
-To enable debug messages of the autocompletion script uncomment `#logfile="log"`. `log` file is created in current directory.
-
-## Limitations
-Listing of datasets is using the default zosmf profile.
