In the nmh-1.4 sources, there is a file,  docs/COMPLETION-BASH.

I assumed that it is a bash source file. But, from bash,

     source COMPLETION-BASH

yields the error mesages:

  bash: COMPLETION-BASH: line 23: syntax error near unexpected token `('
  bash: COMPLETION-BASH: line 23: `        \++([a-zA-Z_]) )'

I just added another error message to it, before those:

  ERROR: COMPLETION-BASH is not intended to be sourced directly, but
  rather added to a bash-completion package installation.

Is that clear enough?  If you have an /etc/bash_completion.d/
directory, copy it there and it will work.  On Fedora, that's
in the bash-completion package.
