Tired of having to type base/scripts/*.sh each time? Put the following in your .bash_profile:

function _rap() {
	local cur prev opts
	
	COMPREPLY=()
	cur="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}"
	prev="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD-1]}"
	if [ ! -d base/scripts ]; then
		return 0
	fi
	opts=$( cd base/scripts > /dev/null ; echo * )

	if [[ ${prev} == "rap" ]] ; then
		COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "${opts}" -- ${cur}) )
		return 0
	fi
}
function rap() {
	"./base/scripts/$1"
}
complete -F _rap rap

Now you can just type rap , hit tab and the rest will autocomplete.
