Description

I'm using zsh 5.0.8 on OSX 10.11.6.

When I tried to run the generated completion bash for the basic example in README, I got the following error.

_complete-calculatorpy:4: unrecognized modifier C'`

I finally resolved this issue by replacing the : in the bash script with : .

An extra option for completion command will be helpful for zsh user.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how python fire generates bash completions and modify the completion generation to support zsh, possibly by adding a completion type option or detecting the shell automatically.
