What tcsh has is powerful command completion, which I believeDebian doesn't setup by default. For example, one could program tcsh such that it knew all the options to the `dpkg' command. Then, typing in: $ dpkg -[TAB] i.e. pressing the tab key after the hyphen, would list all the options to dpkg and would tab-complete them. It's nice to press TAB after the `cd' command and see only directory names instead of all files, or TAB after `latex' and see only .tex files. -- Peter Galbraith, research scientist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Maurice-Lamontagne Institute, Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada P.O.
