Hi Jude, Are you using both upper and lower case letters when you type? Since Unix is case sensitive, when you use terminal the file names and paths that you tab complete should also match case. For example, if I want to change directory to my Desktop, I need to start typing Desktop with a capital "D" for tab completion to work, since there is no folder there named "desktop" (beginning with a lower case "d"). However, typing
cd De [and then pressing the tab key] would produce a command like cd Desktop on my computer under terminal. HTH Cheers, Esther On Dec 01, 2007, at 09:17AM, Jude DaShiell wrote: >How do you enable tab completion in the terminal? It appears to be >disabled by default and I find this unacceptable. >
