+The functions for some contexts re-dispatch by calling the function
+tt(_dispatch) to offer more specific context information.  This is
+done by appending the parts of extra information to the name of the
+context, separated by commas.  Currently, only the function
+completing redirection arguments (tt(_redirect)) and the function
+completing values in parameter assignments (tt(_value)) use this
+feature.  The former uses contexts of the form
+`tt(-redirect-,)var(op)tt(,)var(command)', where var(op) is the

+of the parameter (or `var(name)tt(-)var(key)' when completing a
+value of an associative array in an assignment like

+
+To simplify defining functions for multiple cases, the functions
+tt(_redirect) and tt(_value) will make tt(_dispatch) try these context
+names more than once with each of the parts once set to the string

+var(command) part), `tt(-value-,foo,-default-)' and
