With 'set autolist=ambiguous' in tcsh, if I'm at an empty prompt and I hit tab, it essentially does an ls on the directory. If I hit tab at an empty prompt in bash, it tries to complete all available commands instead. I've set up these already:
That's how bash through bash-3.2 behaves. The next version will have a facility to set the completion for `empty' commands.
Secondly, I prefer bindkey -v in tcsh, or set -o vi (and editing-mode/keymap) in bash. There's a difference though in that if I scroll through history, tcsh defaults to command mode, and bash defaults to insert mode. Not a major problem but I'm wondering if there's something I missed that would get bash to default to command mode so I don't have to re-learn habits.
I assume you mean using the arrow keys. If you start in insert mode when using the arrow keys to go forward and backward in the history list, bash leaves you there. If you're in command mode, you stay in command mode. Chet -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer Chet Ramey, ITS, CWRU [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/~chet/
