Hi, Ubuntu 12.10, Bash 4.2.37
With the following inputrc ([Ctrl-RightArrow] mapped to menu-complete): set show-all-if-ambiguous on "\e[1;5C": menu-complete Actual Behaviour ---------------- # Type 'ls d' $ ls d # Press <tab> key $ ls d desktop/ document/ dropbox/ $ ls d # Press [Ctrl-RightArrow] $ ls d desktop/ document/ dropbox/ $ ls d desktop/ document/ dropbox/ $ ls desktop/ Desired Behaviour (differs only with last keypress only) -------------------------------------------------------- # Press [Ctrl-RightArrow] $ ls d desktop/ document/ dropbox/ $ ls desktop/ Thanks a lot, Rehan
