Hi,
maybe this little trick was obvious to someone else, but I've just found it
recently. As you know many commands in HelenOS accept a service name as an
argument such as bd/initrd (e.g. blkdump, mk*fs, mount, slip, etc.), but
they don't accept a full pathname of the locfs mapping (/loc/bd/initrd),
which makes it difficult to use tab completion. [we might need to revisit
this in the future]
One way to work around it is to type in the full pathname first (/loc/bd/
initrd) and use tab completion, then go back and delete the "/loc/" prefix.
The more clever way to do it is first "cd /loc" and *magic* - you can tab-
complete service names ^_^
If anybody finds it useful, I can put it in the user guide.
Cheers,
Jiri
