When typing a command line if you hit the tab key the shell will attempt to auto complete based on the first few characters you type, if you hit the tab key twice it will list all of the options if there are several files with the same first few characters. I use that a lot for those applications that use spaces in the file names. Might help with that problem. -- Scot L.
