Tab Tab program/command line editing

If you hit the tab key twice in a row it lists all available commands. This seems like a useless thing because I see no way of sending the output to 'less' and most of the 1917 possibilities scroll off the screen. Anyway my problem is I get the same result if I hit the Esc key twice. I'm

When I tried 'exim tabtab' the output listed 156 files in my home directory. This is different than the output that you got. Am I experiencing a bug? I'm using Bash for the shell. The Bash man page is large and I may have missed a reference to this tabtab function but I didn't see anything

I see your point if you use the real terminal (monitor hooked to linux box) and if you use a telnet. I just hooked up my monitor to my server after I set the env var to vt100 to satisfy my telnet. The real terminal was skrewed up, so I had to set it back to ansi. I suppose it is the telnet

It's not a bug, its a feature. It's called command completion. The (bash) shell is trying to help you out by finishing off your typing for you. If you don't like it, use a different shell. Zsh has command completion as well, but pressing tabtab does nothing. I think the equivalent for zsh is

Hi, As I understand bash, 'eximSPACEtabtab' will attempt to complete an argument to exim (with the files in your pwd). 'eximNOSPACEtabtab' will attempt to complete a command (in your $PATH) beginning with 'exim'. Robert. [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Mon, 5 Jul 1999, ktb wrote: When I tried 'exim

You purchased RedHat 5.2 not Linux 5.2 (Or perhaps it's labled RedHat Linux 5.2). RedHat is just another one of the many distributions of Linux (in the same way that Debian can be a distribution of Linux). As for finding answers to your questions, you're probably best off asking on a

Sounds like you're running xdm. If you don't want to get the Debian GNU/Linux login (hostname) prompt (or whatever it's exactly called), don't use xdm--use the 'startx' program instead. I personally prefer xdm, myself... On Tue, 6 Jul 1999, Dan wrote: Would you believe it? Thanks to the info

There's a document (called Win95.txt or something similar) included with the Samba documentation. There is a problem with late versions of Win95 (so I would also assume Win98) authenticating with Samba. I'm not up on all the details--the only Win95 installations I have are the original Win95
