Hello!

I am running Debian with 2.4.8-1.

I noticed that gpg support bash command completion, but gpgsm doesn't.
Was that ever available for gpgsm?

The bash completions for 'gpg' are maintained by the bash-completion
project, not GnuPG [1][2][3].

I suppose whoever wrote them originally did not use the 'gpgsm' command,
since it does not have completions implemented.

I'm sure they would be happy to accept the contribution if you or
someone else implemented it. The completions for the other commands
should be a good reference.

No idea. Should be easy to implement by parsing "gpgsm --dump-options".

Yep, that is what the completions do for 'gpg', 'gpgv', etc.

Atleast, it does that after handling context-specific completions. For
example, 'gpg --edit-key' and pressing tab for completions will execute
'gpg --list-keys' to suggest keys that you might want to edit.
