Here only after I say 'n' is it revealed to me that I have already completed /func, not just /fu:
$ w3m /usr/share/doc/php-doc/html/fu<TAB> Display all 5361 possibilities? (y or n) n $ w3m /usr/share/doc/php-doc/html/func Therefore, please make bash, upon receiving a <TAB>, first add all the additional matching characters it knows about, before asking us the question. Here's the whole sequence: 1 $ w3m /usr/share/doc/php-doc/html/f<TAB> 2 Display all 5486 possibilities? (y or n) n 3 $ w3m /usr/share/doc/php-doc/html/fu<TAB> <---this u added by me 4 Display all 5361 possibilities? (y or n) 5 $ w3m /usr/share/doc/php-doc/html/func <---this nc added by bash I want bash to add the nc at line 3 after I hit TAB, instead of waiting till line 5. This is clearly no skin off bash's back and a bug in that bash is not coughing up all the info it knows at the right time. Version 4.1-3 0
