You might give it a try in lieu of Bash. It has a really cool configurable commandline completion feature. If you installed the ports tree then you'll find it here: /usr/ports/shells/zsh I have the following lines in my ~/.zshrc to tweak commandline completion the way I like it. bindkey -e # Emacs editing mode setopt auto_list # list completions on TAB setopt no_beep # don't beep on TAB -steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
