I was thinking something similar, but hadn't thought about tab completion - interesting idea! I was picturing something with a nano-like interface. Run the program from your terminal, get a simple set of menus you can navigate with a keyboard, tick off boxes for options, etc., then have an auto-updating command example output in a bottom "pane" showing you in real time what the cli args would be for what you specified.

In C* land I think they use ncurses to build those, if memory serves, but I probably wouldn't write it in C myself just since I'm not very well versed in it. Probably Go or Rust...

Anyway, good idea. If I hack on this I may see about implementing something like that, some day!
