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.
How do you use CTRL+X to automatically add a $ before a word?

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).

Suppose there exists a file, "/home/andrew/product/test". And suppose I set $FOO to "/home/andrew/product/"? I can't seem to type "$FOO/t" and then Escape (csh) in order to autocomplete.
Is this possible in other shells? If not, then why? If so, then why can't csh do it, and how can I make... (1 Reply)

Hi, i need autocmplete file_name/dir_name by TAB key. I work on UNIX (TRU64) and I just tried to type on .profile this setting:
set autolist
but it doesn't work. I think it is because this command doesn't belong to this UNIX version (sure it works for example on HP-UX).

I have a file that has the words I want to find in other files (but lets say I just want to find my words in a single file). Those words are IDs, so if my word is ZZZ4, outputs like aaZZZ4, ZZZ4bb, aaZZZ4bb, ZZ4, ZZZ, ZyZ4, ZZZ4.8 (or anything like that) WON'T BE USEFUL.
I need the whole word... (6 Replies)

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?

evim
EVIM(1) General Commands Manual EVIM(1)NAME
evim - easy Vim, edit a file with Vim and setup for modeless editing
SYNOPSIS
evim [options] [file ..]
eview
DESCRIPTION
eVim starts Vim and sets options to make it behave like a modeless editor. This is still Vim but used as a point-and-click editor. This
feels a lot like using Notepad on MS-Windows. eVim will always run in the GUI, to enable the use of menus and toolbar.
Only to be used for people who really can't work with Vim in the normal way. Editing will be much less efficient.
eview is the same, but starts in read-only mode. It works just like evim -R.
See vim(1) for details about Vim, options, etc.
The 'insertmode' option is set to be able to type text directly.
Mappings are setup to make Copy and Paste work with the MS-Windows keys. CTRL-X cuts text, CTRL-C copies text and CTRL-V pastes text. Use
CTRL-Q to obtain the original meaning of CTRL-V.
OPTIONS
See vim(1).
FILES
/usr/local/lib/vim/evim.vim
The script loaded to initialize eVim.
AKA
Also Known As "Vim for gumbies". When using evim you are expected to take a handkerchief, make a knot in each corner and wear it on your
head.

Most of Vim was made by Bram Moolenaar, with a lot of help from others. See the Help/Credits menu.
