In order to have the argument autocomplete function working (compatible with Linux bash only), you need to install the argcomplete package:

$ pip install argcomplete

Then activate it by running:

$ activate-global-python-argcomplete3 --user

And add the following line to your shell configuration file (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, etc.):

$ eval "$(register-python-argcomplete ./build_mpp.py)"

or

$ eval "$(register-python-argcomplete ./build_mpp.py)" >> ~/.bashrc

After this you need to call the script directly without python3:

$ chmod +x ./build_mpp.py
$ ./build_mpp.py -h
