Every single tcsh that I've ever used¹ has supported tab-completion. I believe that it also supports double-escape as a bash/ksh compatibility feature, but AFAIK, tab-completion is the native-to-tcsh one. (Edit: Oh yeah...this part...) ¹I've been using tcsh since at least 1995 while at UTexas. -YendorMike "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, 1759 Historical Review of Pennsylvania Edited by Yendor Dec. 9, 2005, 03:00:30 PM EST Expand All History
