Bash completion for own function

Question

I just want the first argument to a function of mine to auto-complete with all possible executables.

This is what I added to my .bash_aliases

function viwhich() { vi `which $1` ; }

But now the executables don't auto complete anymore, e.g. TAB isn't working.

Is there a quick fix?

Found it

function viwhich() { vi `which $1` ; }
complete -c command viwhich

Nice
