Not in my environment, it doesn't. That's presumably because I've disabled programmable completion, which I do intentionally because it produces results (IIRC relating to directory completion) which I don't like. It's still perfectly reasonable to point this out as an approach to take, but it would be better to note the prerequisite for it to function, even though AFAIK that prerequisite comes enabled by default. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
