The dash has more possibilities than you imagine. Do you think I write
compizconfig-setting...or only comp and then the dash complete it? I can
use power of the dash to complete the name of the command and add then a
second word when necessary. Multiple choices aren't because of the dash.
They appear in terminal too...
so I think that it works..
