actually you should do the other way ?!
Like, when you type $va you should expect it to complete the $var_name as it reduces lot of keyings. So if that is the thing which you can do with CTRL+X CTRL+N, and other CTRL+X completions.

Hi all
I have installed Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 onto a Proliant DL580 (dual XEON 2.8GHz processors).
The bash shell is not autocompleting filenames/directorynames when I hit escape twice. History (via Ctrl+r works). Is there a setting somewhere to enable this?
Thanks. (2 Replies)

Hi,
I enabled the Autocomplete of filename by the command set -o emacs
But i couldn't enjoy the benifits of vi anymore. i.e I couldn't get the command history by pressing Esc and k.
How to enjoy both of this features at a time.?

I'm coming from a c-shell environment where I was spoiled with the tab completion on the command line, only to find that using korn-shell I don't have this capability. The only thing I can find by googling is to use 'set filec' - but that doesn't work (and I think is only for c-shell anyway).

Hi
I'm still new around bash and Ubuntu, but I was expecting for the "cp" command to have an autocomplete feature like the ls command. Should it, or I'm assuming too much?
In case it doesn't have by default, is there a way to enable it?

trans(1int) trans(1int)
Name
trans - translation tool for use with source message catalogs
Syntax
trans [ -c ] [ -o name ] file.msf
Description
The command assists in the translation of source message catalogs. The command reads input from file.msf and writes its output to either a
file named or a file you name on the command line. The command displays file.msf in a multiple window screen that lets you simultaneously
see the original message, the translated text you enter, and any messages from the command. This multiple window screen is easier to use
for translating messages than a single window screen.
The top window in the multiple window screen displays the text in the message source file file.msf. The editor displays the current mes-
sage in reverse video.
In the center window, displays a prompt that asks you to enter a translated message. You use a control key editor to move the cursor and
delete text in the center window. The control key sequences are defined as follows:
------------------------------------------
Key Sequence Meaning
------------------------------------------
CTRL/k Display control key help
CTRL/h Back space
CTRL/l Forward space
CTRL/w Back word
CTRL/f Forward word
CTRL/e Move to end of input
CTRL/b Move to beginning of input
CTRL/n Next line
CTRL/p Previous line
CTRL/u Delete input
CTRL/i Insert mode (default)
CTRL/r Replace mode
DEL Delete previous character
------------------------------------------
If you need to span more than one line with the translated text, type a backslash () and press the RETURN key to enable line continuation.
After you finish entering the translated text, press the RETURN key to signal that you have finished translating that message.
The bottom window displays any messages generated by If an error occurs, prompts you to re-enter the entire line, including the message
label or number.
Options
-c Display comment lines beginning with a dollar sign ($) for translation, in addition to messages.
-o Call the output file name. The default is output file name is
Restrictions
Your terminal must be 80 columns by 24 lines for to display its three-window screen.
You cannot interrupt a session and restart it at the point you stopped. You must complete the all the changes to a file before exiting a
file.
