-Using bash command-line completion scripts
-------------------------------------------
-
-There are two completion scripts available, ovs-appctl-bashcomp.bash
-and ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash respectively.
-
-ovs-appctl-bashcomp
--------------------
-
-   ovs-appctl-bashcomp.bash adds bash command-line completion support
-   for ovs-appctl, ovs-dpctl, ovs-ofctl and ovsdb-tool commands.
-
-   Features:
-   ---------
-
-      display available completion or complete on unfinished user input
-      (long option, subcommand, and argument).
-
-      once the subcommand (e.g. ofproto/trace) has been given, the
-      script will print the subcommand format.
-
-      the script can convert between keywords like 'bridge/port/interface/dp'
-      and the available record in ovsdb.
-
-   Limitations:
-   ------------
-
-      only support small set of important keywords
-      (dp, datapath, bridge, switch, port, interface, iface).
-
-      does not support parsing of nested options
-      (e.g. ovsdb-tool create [db [schema]]).
-
-      does not support expansion on repeatitive argument
-      (e.g. ovs-dpctl show [dp...]).
-
-      only support matching on long options, and only in the format
-      (--option [arg], i.e. should not use --option=[arg]).
-
-ovs-vsctl-bashcomp
--------------------
-
-   ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash adds bash command-line completion support
-   for ovs-vsctl command.
-
-   Features:
-   ---------
-
-      display available completion and complete on user input for
-      global/local options, command, and argument.
-
-      query database and expand keywords like 'table/record/column/key'
-      to available completions.
-
-      deal with argument relations like 'one and more', 'zero or one'.
-
-      complete multiple ovs-vsctl commands cascaded via '--'.
-
-   Limitations:
-   ------------
-
-      completion of very long ovs-vsctl command can take up to several
-      seconds.
-
-How to use:
------------
-
-   The bashcomp scripts should be placed at /etc/bash_completion.d/
-   to be available for all bash sessions.  Running 'make install'
-   will place the scripts to $(sysconfdir)/bash_completion.d/.  So user
-   should specify --sysconfdir=/etc at configuration.  Meanwhile, if OVS is
-   installed from packages, the scripts will automatically be placed inside
-   /etc/bash_completion.d/.
-
-   If you just want to run the scripts in one bash, you can remove them from
-   /etc/bash_completion.d/ and run the scripts via '. ovs-appctl-bashcomp.bash'
-   or '. ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash'.
-
-Test:
------
-
-   Unit tests are added in tests/completion.at and integrated into autotest
-   framework.  To run the tests, just do make check.
-
-Bug Reporting:
---------------
-
-Please report problems to bugs@openvswitch.org.

+scripts to ``$(sysconfdir)/bash_completion.d/``, thus, the user should specify
+``--sysconfdir=/etc`` at configuration.  If OVS is installed from packages, the
+scripts will automatically be placed inside ``/etc/bash_completion.d/``.
+
+If you just want to run the scripts in one bash, you can remove them from
+``/etc/bash_completion.d/`` and run the scripts via ``.
+ovs-appctl-bashcomp.bash`` or ``. ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash``.
+
+Tests
+-----
+
+Unit tests are added in ``tests/completion.at`` and integrated into autotest
+framework.  To run the tests, just run ``make check``.
