## Shell Completion
`slack-primitive-cli` depends on [click](https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/), so `slack-primitive-cli` can provide tab completion.
Bash, Zsh, and Fish are supported

In order to activate shell completion, you need to execute the following script.

```
$ eval "$(_SLACKCLI_COMPLETE=source slackcli)"
```


See [here](https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/bashcomplete/) for details.
