Tab completion gubbins
Hello all
How do you configure unix terminal to list files as you tab complete. I'm using a unix terminal at work and when i first started tab complete on a folder would list all matches if there were more than one.
eg.
monkey.xml
mon.xml
monkeyboy.xml
in one folder if i cd into that folder
cd shared/.../xml/ (then hitting tab would list all files in folder and allow me to continue with my command)
also cd shared/.../xml/monk <tab> would list monkey.xml and monkeyboy.xml
I think faffing around with my .aliases or .cshrc since has caused it to stop how do i change it back?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I recently discovered the ! command. I think it's great that !cd ? will match the last command that began with cd ?. However, for ! to be particularly useful to me (for now anyway) it would be nice if there was a tab completion option available (as with the cd command). Does anyone know... (3 Replies)

Is it possible to set up my .cshrc so that a single tab attempts to autocomplete, while a double tab gives a list of all possible options. In other words, I want it to work like bash in this regard.

I really like tcsh's:
set completion='enhanced'
because it treats underscores and dash signs the same. I don't have to reach for the shift key when trying to complete files that have underscores. As far as I know, there is nothing like this in bash.
Does such a thing exist in bash? If... (2 Replies)

hwloc-assembler
HWLOC-ASSEMBLER(1) hwloc HWLOC-ASSEMBLER(1)
NAME
hwloc-assembler - Assemble multiple XML topologies
SYNOPSIS
hwloc-assembler [options] output.xml [--name <name1>] input1.xml [--name <name2>] input2.xml ...
OPTIONS
-n --name <name>
Set <name> in the AssemblerName info attribute of the next input topology root to ease identification within the final global topol-
ogy.
-f --force
Ignore errors while reading input files.
-v --verbose
Verbose messages.
DESCRIPTION
hwloc-assembler combines the input XML topologies and exports the resulting global topologies to a new XML file. All inputs are inserting
as children of the global root object. Each input topology root is annotated with info attributes before insertion. AssemblerIndex is set
to the index within the list of inputs. AssemblerName is set to the name given with --name if any. hwloc-assembler-remote offers a fron-
tend for assembling remote nodes topologies without having to manually gather and transfer each of them.
EXAMPLES
To assemble two nodes topologies:
$ hwloc-assembler output.xml --name host1 host1.xml --name host2 host2.xml
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful execution, hwloc-assembler returns 0.
hwloc-assembler will return nonzero if any kind of error occurs, such as (but not limited to) failure to parse the command line.
