The default listener from the terminal does not support tab completion
because it does not use readline.
If you want to try it, you can either run it on startup:
$ ./factor -run=readline-listener
or start it after launch:
IN: scratchpad USE: readline-listener
IN: scratchpad readline-listener
IN: scratchpad CHAR: ugar<tab>
Not sure how to set that up in FUEL but it should be possible, at the very
least to use the second method.

Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that
developers love is also attractive to malware creators. Download this white
paper to learn more about secure code signing practices that can help keep
