#compdef _arguments

# Dear reader: This function is called "__arguments" and is the completion
# function for the completion function _arguments.  This function, however, is
# not the completion function _arguments.  If you're looking for the function
# _arguments, then you've come to the wrong place.
#
# _arguments is a completion utility function.  It is called by completion
# functions for command-line tools.
#
# __arguments is a completion function for _arguments.  It runs when one does
# `_arguments -<TAB>' at the shell prompt to jog one's memory about _arguments'
# option flags.
#
# _arguments is in documented in the manual.  If you were looking for its
# source code, that'd be either in ../../../Completion/Base/Utility/_arguments
# or in ./_arguments, depending on where you're reading this file.
#
# __arguments takes no arguments.
