Grails bash completion

I’ve started doing some Grails development. So far it seems great. Here are a couple of notes to start with.

Grails is not packaged officially for Ubuntu yet. And the packages that can be downloaded from grails.org don’t have bash completion. This guy however packaged grails for Debian/Ubuntu, and it include a bash completion script. The package seems to work great, and for one of my machines where I already installed grails from the usual tar.gz download, I pulled out the bash completion from the deb-package. To make it work completely with the tar.gz dowload I just had to modify the location of the grails installation (to use $GRAILS_HOME). Ahhhh.

Somewhat less useful (but fun), I also added the Ubuntu “notify-send” notification feature described here. I feel all set for Grails development.
