Yes, it does. I just tested it on Linux and the same problem occurs. It depends on whether you use the default completions from /etc/profile.d/complete.tcsh or not. Usually I don't (setting `uncomplete *' in my .cshrc), neither on Cygwin nor on Linux. So, yes, if I use the `ln' completion from /etc/profile.d/complete.tcsh, I can reproduce this problem on Linux and Cygwin with tcsh-6.19, while it works as expected on tcsh-6.18. Looks like an upstream bug to me. I'll report it to the maintainer. Thanks, Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
