if I'm typing

it would be nice if the shell auto-completed |--humanize-numbers| because I
can never remember if tarsnap uses the Oxford 'z' or not. A few quick googles
suggest that this is done (for bash) by adding a script to

|/etc/bash_completion.d/
|

in Debian-based distros. So this might be nice to add to the binary packages.
