Won't work if you use case-insensitive tab-completion (or in other words, if ~/.inputrc contains 'set completion-ignore-case on'). However, this works for me, in my ~/.bashrc: export FIGNORE=cygwin.bat:cygwin.ico Basically, teach bash that during file completion, it should ignore files whose suffix is either one of the two problematic filenames. -- Eric Blake -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
