> There's so many sub shells in karaf its kinda hard to get help on any single subshell without scrolling your terminal or using more; would be nice to be able to type
> {code}
> karaf@root> help o<TAB>
> karaf@root> help osgi<RETURN>
> {code}
> and get help for all the osgi sub shell commands only (rather than pages and pages of help for all the commands available). 
> i.e. argument complete on the sub shell names and only show the help for that sub shell once its complete.
> Plus it'd be nice to tab complete this further to get an exact command - though this second option is less important, as folks can use tab completion on an exact command first, then add --help. Though for completeness it would be nice to be able to tab complete sub shells and commands via the help command too. 
> It'd make the help more helpful :)
