After reading this thread I finally have my command line completion back! I have Rocket’s Bash installed, set my OMVS segment to the bash shell, used Bluezone and created a ssh terminal session with VT320, set “disable dimming colors” and “Use ANSI colors” and set my screen to 32x120. I then added export TERM=xterm to .profile and VIOLA! Tab command line completion!
Thanks to all!
