You need to set the bash variable
"show-all-if-ambiguous" to on,
I think that would be
# set show-all-if-ambiguous on
but it doesnt work for me.
Thanks for the informations, I managed to find an easy way to look in the big "man
bash" :)
I typed
locate bash | grep man
so I found a bash.1.gz, I un-gzip-ed it, launched a
grep show bash.1 -n
found the line #4422 , and it said:
---------------------
.B show-all-if-ambiguous (Off)
This alters the default behavior of the completion functions. If
set to on ,
words which have more than one possible completion cause the
matches to be listed immediately instead of ringing the bell.
----------------------
meaning that "set show-all-if-ambiguous on" should do what I want... but it
doesn't. Shame!
