In gnome-terminal (unlike some other terminals), when you copy/paste a tab
it's not transformed in spaces. Try it right now, type:
echo 'gnome-termi^V^I'
where ^V is Ctrl-V and ^I is the tab key, then copy/paste the line
(triple-left click, middle click) in your bash, and voil� ! You just pasted
a tab, so you have auto-completion ...
