But before this becomes a 'me too' post, i've also noticed something else. When i do: S I get: SAMPLES SETVER.EXE SORT.EXE SVUNINST.EXE SendTo SCANDISK.EXE SIGVERIF.EXE SRS SYS.COM ShellNew SCANDSKW.EXE SMARTDRV.EXE ST5UNST.EXE SYSBCKUP Start Menu SCANREG.EXE SNDREC32.EXE START.EXE SYSMON.EXE SCANREGW.EXE SNDVOL32.EXE SUBST.EXE SYSTEM SETDEBUG.EXE SOL.EXE SULFNBK.EXE SYSTEM32 Now as well as including EXEs which should be there, there are also subdirectories of folders that are in my path. The above command was executed from $HOME. But, for example, SendTo and Start Menu are both subdirectories of /c/WINDOWS. And SRS is a subdirectory of my /c/WORK/RELEASE/LIB Should bash be doing this? I tried the same on a linux box (which was running an older verison of bash) and it doesn't. I can't see any benifit of autocompleting directory names before a command has first been entered. (ie. i agree that cd S should list sub-directories of the current directory).
