AutoCompletion doesn't work on MacOS

[rexim]

Moved from #288 (comment)

Original comment by @kuchenkruste:

It seems like that the NPE doesn't occur anymore. Sadly the autocompletion still doesn't work either (load <tab> simply does nothing). Maybe there is a problem with sym-links? I've moved the fatjar (as well as the std/ folder) to a separate folder, created a .sh script and linked /usr/local/bin/morganey to it.
It may be possible that I screwed up the path to the fatjar in the shell script. I'll check this out.

@kuchenkruste I'd suggest you to try the following scenario:

• Go to the root of source code folder of Morganey
• $ sbt assembly
• $ java -jar target/scala-2.11/morganey-assembly-0.0.1.jar
• λ> load <tab>

@kuchenkruste is this still reproducible?

Sorry for my delayed response, my studies take up all my time. I'm really sorry.

Regarding to your question: Yes, it is still reproducible. I think the problem here is, that I've created a symbolic link to a shell script which itself executes the fat-jar. When executing the fat-jar directly everything works fine. I didn't look into the code, but it seems like there is something wrong with the part which is responsible for searching for the standard library.

@kuchenkruste cool! Thank you very much for the update! No need to be sorry. We all are busy with our own lifes and I completely understand that. I was just going through Morganey issues looking for something I could quickly close and decided to ping you just in case. :)

I wanna try to reproduce that on my Linux. We can probably convert that into a bug with formal reproduction instructions.

NixOS 16.03 couldn't reproduce

Morganey/ $ sbt assembly
Morganey/ $ cd ..
$ cat << EOF > morganey.sh
heredoc> #!/bin/sh
heredoc> 
heredoc> java -jar target/scala-2.11/morganey-assembly-0.0.1.jar $@
heredoc> EOF
$ chmod +x morganey.sh
$ ln -s morganey.sh morganey
$ cd Morganey
Morganey/ $ ../morganey
λ> load std. <TAB>
load std.list        load std.prelude     load std.common      load std.math.       load std.logic       load std.functions

@kuchenkruste after merging #319 Morganey fully supports autocompletion of modules from jar. The fatjar is completly self-content. Please try to reproduce the problem again when you get a chance. Thanks!
