 Autocompletion
 **************
 
-Restic can write out a bash compatible autocompletion script:
+Restic can write out man pages and bash/zsh compatible autocompletion scripts:
 
 .. code-block:: console
 
-    $ ./restic autocomplete --help
-    The "autocomplete" command generates a shell autocompletion script.
+    $ ./restic generate --help
 
-    NOTE: The current version supports Bash only.
-          This should work for *nix systems with Bash installed.
-
-By default, the file is written directly to ``/etc/bash_completion.d/``
-for convenience, and the command may need superuser rights, e.g.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ sudo restic autocomplete
+    The "generate" command writes automatically generated files like the man pages
+    and the auto-completion files for bash and zsh).
 
     Usage:
-      restic autocomplete [flags]
+      restic generate [command] [flags]

+          --bash-completion file   write bash completion file
+      -h, --help                   help for generate
+          --man directory          write man pages to directory
+          --zsh-completion file    write zsh completion file
 
-    Global Flags:

+    $ sudo ./restic generate --bash-completion /etc/bash_completion.d/restic
+    writing bash completion file to /etc/bash_completion.d/restic
