Well, Bradley and Ryan,

I might be confused right now about the tab history completion. (Have to check 
again its exact behaviour on my linux laptop - when I feel the need to start it 
up again.) :)

BUT, the history completion with page up and down works differently to what 
arrow up and down do. The letter just scroll the history, page up and down 
search up and down in history for commands which start with the letters already 
typed in.

Say, I have entered the string "hg ci" in my command line. If I now use page 
up, bash will scroll through all my previous "hg ci" commands. I used this to 
quickly reuse old message strings, since page up would e.g. allow to reaccess 
something like "hg ci -m '- 12.2.10: account download' ".

I hope this makes it a bit clearer what I initially meant.

Greets,
Marko
