Setting the Completion Character Wed, Aug 8, 2001 Whenever I set up a new machine (which happens a lot as WinXP and .NET go through their beta & RC cycles), I always need to manually set up the completion character (to TAB, of course) in the Registry. Shawn VanNess posted a .rgs file that would set this up without the lengthy search through the Registry. Inspired by Shawn, here's my own completionChar.reg that doesn't require a program to parse .rgs files (which doesn't come with Windows).
BTW, if you don't know about the command shell's Completion Character, stop right now, run the completionChar.reg file, start up a WinNT/Win2K/WinXP command shell, type "cd c:\p[TAB]" and watch while the shell expands it to "cd C:\Program Files\" for you. If you have other directories that start with "c:\p", continue to hit [TAB] to cycle through them. This works for any directory or file name and it boosts my productivity by about 100% on the command line. I can't live without it! gefunden bei: http://www.sellsbrothers.com/tools/ das reg file ist anbei. mfg HH
