bash tab-completion script for Mininet (mn) network emulator

This bash-completion script for Mininet network emulator is develmented based on the awesome bash-completion project, which means its depends on bash-completion.

Though bash-completion may be installed by default (or by package suggestions of bash) in many unix-like distros, please make sure you already have it on your environment, so that these completion can work properly, e.g. see if you have one of these files in your system:

/usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion
/usr/local/share/bash-completion/bash_completion

Above are the most common paths that bash-completion will be installed.

Once you make sure you have bash-completion, you can now just simply download and put the mn script into bash-completion's completions folder, e.g. :

wget https://github.com/PeterDaveHello/mininet-bash-completion/raw/master/mn
cp /source/path/of/mn /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/

Then re-active bash-completion:

source /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion

Now you can use mininet's command mn with some auto-completions!
