You might also want to add the following, if you want to have a
completion that behaves like the default completion:

(setq pcomplete-cycle-completions nil)

Otherwise you'll get the default cycling completion of pcomplete, which
is not very intuitive if you're used to Emacs in general, or to the
default Bash completion mechanism.

And beware, completion of things (filenames, directories) containing
spaces won't work.
