Hi Herculano,
This is a bit of a tough one, and depends on how you have readline
configured (ie. emacs or vi mode). If you add the following to
the end of your /etc/inputrc file you should get what you want:
$if mode=vi
"\C-0-": digit-argument
TAB: menu-complete
"\e[Z": "\C-0-\t"
$else
TAB: menu-complete
"\e[Z": "\M--1\t"
$endif
"man readline" has all the details about why this works.
HTH,
Sean
