Hi everyone, I'm trying to get a specific completion behaviour (simple but effective). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is what I'm looking for:
1. When TAB is hit once, complete the command-line with the longest common prefix AND list all possible completions (at the same time). This can be easily achieved by putting 'set show-all-if-ambiguous' in ~/.inputrc. 2. If TAB is hit again after that, then cycle through the possible completions (that is insert the next full match each time TAB is pressed). Obviously, I cannot bind TAB to menu-complete cause I would lose 1. It's actually the exact same behaviour you get with 'set wildmode=list:longest,full' in Vim. I found a lot of articles dealing with how to get Bash-like completion in Vim, but none discussing the opposite. Thanks for taking the time to read my request. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Completion%3A-menu-complete-from-second-TAB-hit-onwards-tp25672712p25672712.html Sent from the Gnu - Bash mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
