The man page it's the default but you should proob) Maybe things have changed. I think Gary Johnson is right. For background, my old 32-bit cygwin 1.7.17-1 install (bash 4.1.10-4), "cygcheck -cvs | grep -i completion" shows no packages with the string "completion" in the name. And if I have files (not directories) _viminfo & _vimrc, tabbing after "find _vi" does a completion up to "find _vim", then shows me the two candidate files thereafter. In my new 64-bit cygwin 1.7.28-2 (bash 4.1.11-2, bash-completion 1.3-1), I also have _viminfo & _vimrc, but "find _vi" doesn't complete, nor does it show candidate files. I ensured that I have directories vimfiles and vimtest, and "find vi" does complete up to "find vim", then shows me the two candidate directories thereafter. On the other hand, in the new 64-bit cygwin, "ls vi" and "ls _vi" *always* completes as much as it can, then shows me the two candidates thereafter. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
