Oh. Ohhhhh!!! NEATO. Now to remember I can do this the next time I can't
remember the name of a module. lol
Double neato ! It works after each option too.
Well, it's called bash completion and works pretty much for everything
that has a completion file. It needs "app-shells/bash-completion" to be
installed. There's a also global USE flag called bash-completion.
And also an eselect module called bashcomp, where you can enable this
feature for specific tools and packages. "eselect bashcomp list" shows
the packages that support this. For example, try "ls --<tab><tab>" and
you get a list options. Or gcc, or unrar, or...
