Modifying completion of read(1builtin)

[Douglas Lewan]

Hi, all,

I have a list of about 30 strings that are appropriate for a certain 
instance of read(1builtin).

How can I set up completion for read to include them? It looks like some 
combination of compgen() and complete() would be right, but I haven't 
been able to find it. Can anyone help?

It also looks like any such modification would apply to all instances of 
read. Can it be restricted to that one instance? Can it be restricted to 
exactly those values?

Thanks.
