Command Line File Completion On CentOS 7
I have noticed on CentOS 7.2 that when I am doing command line file TAB completion it behaves differently.
if I have a file /tmp/file 1.txt (notice the space)
when I do:
ls /tmp/file and hit TAB it works
but if I do:
more /tmp/file and hit TAB it does NOT work. What I get is
1.txt file
versus just expanding to /tmp/file 1.txt
Why are they not the same?
Thanks,
Jerry

Not just more for me – in odd cases, not all the time, but on some of our servers, and no, I don’t remember if they’re C6 or c7, sometimes filec works, and others not. Thinking about it, I think it works with ll, but not if I’m doing a command, and the filename is a parameter.
It’s annoying….

It’s anything that has a buggy completion config. javaws doesn’t do what I
want either.
You’ll also find that \more behaves where more doesn’t.
