Works here to... though taking some time to complete (A minute or so the first time) - this depends on your hardware (mine is slow). Hmm... wasn't there a readline/bash option to set, to cancel "empty line" tab completion attempts? <rumbing through 'man bash'> Heh? Where is it? Ahh... :-) shopt -s no_empty_cmd_completion <trying out...> Well, this seems have no positive effect; the completion attemp is still done. OTOH if you type a space and THEN hit TAB - the above helps. /Hannu E K Nevalainen, B.Sc.
