Hi,

first, I'd like to thank everybody involved for your efforts! It's a 
great experience to run ksh93 on Solaris.


Now as the discussion seems to be open for further tweaks, I'd like to 
propose two new features:

1 - in vi edit mode (which I like better than gmacs because of its edit 
window function ("v" when in command mode)), I'd like to be able to type:

<any command><space><tab><tab>

(so no character after the space that follows the command) and get a 
list of all files, just like in gmacs mode (or in bash)


2 - in any edit mode, if the number of directory entries is not too 
large (e.g. less than 100, as otherwise performance might be too low), 
I'd like to be able to perform the following:

cd|rmdir<space><tab>
or
cd|rmdir<any character><tab>

and get only directories expanded or offered in the list.


vi|more|less|cat|tail|head|<space><tab>
or
vi|more|less|cat|tail|head|<any character><tab>

and get only plain files expanded or offered in the list.

There could be a list of commands for files and for directories (maybe 
more?) in a config file which could be customized to meet the user's 
requirements.

Any comments?


Regards,

Bernd
