Re: Tab Tab program/command line editing



When I tried 'exim <tab><tab>' the output listed 156 files in my home
directory.  This is different than the output that you got.  Am I
experiencing a bug?  I'm using Bash for the shell.  The Bash man page is
large and I may have missed a reference to this <tab><tab> function but
I didn't see anything listed under "commands" or "list" that pertained
to <tab><tab>.  I'll keep looking.
Thanks,
kent
