It seems that bash-completion does not work on local files that are known to be there, and I tried it on links, and directories (except for "Desktop" which it did expand) UNLESS it is prefixed with certain commands in front of it, such as: # cd ~/Desktop # ls List<Tab> ListAvailable So it worked. But these fails: # List<Tab> # ./List<Tab> # yum list available > List<Tab> -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
