Well... that's not exactly true. The bash_completion scripts add some |
| 13 |
intelligence to it. For example, if I type |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
mplayer <tab><tab> |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
in my home directory, it will only show all sub-directories (including |
| 18 |
hidden ones) and files with "proper" secondary filenames (the REGEXP |
| 19 |
for the file endings that it accepts are |
| 20 |

You can look at /etc/bash_completion to see what programs have their |
| 24 |
behaviours modified. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
On the other hand, the only mention of 'less' in |
| 27 |
/etc/bash_completion |
| 28 |
/etc/bash_completion.d/gentoo |
| 29 |
is the line telling bash that, when you type |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
less -<tab><tab> |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
it will fill in a second dash and show the list of long options. |
