Please look to my answer:

In short you should learn ``M-x term`` mode and a few key binding:

 * ``C-C C-j``
 * ``C-c C-k``
 * ``C-c ...``

There is attempts to define ``comint-dynamic-complete-functions``:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun comint-completion-at-point ()
  (run-hook-with-args-until-success 'comint-dynamic-complete-functions))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

for readline-enabled programs:
