Yes, there is.

The one thing I did not keep was the stuff about the env vars, because
it didn't suit me to be copying and pasting them with the mouse. To
solve the autocompletion problem you had that prompted you to tweak it,
what I do is

runpg 00<tab> ` Ctrl-A ` <enter>

so the autocompletion works because the first work is "runpg" and not
the single quote, and I enter the initial quote when the command has
been completed (Ctrl-A moves to the start of the line).

I can't remember if I dropped something else.
