How do you do command completion in XP???
Should be on by default in any Command window. Start > Run > cmd When the window opens click the top left corner to open the window menu. Select Defaults. It's a checkbox there.
Of course Microsoft munged the tab complete thing HORRIBLY as usual, but it is there... and it sorta works... ish.. kinda...
C. One thing I hate is the totally screwed up command history. You don't know if you have to scroll up or down! How could MS mess up something so simple???
If no one of the testers cares, and if only a tiny percentage of the users actually use the cmd box for anything serious (unlike what "we" do), then I can easily see how these things gets messed up. If something would get screwed up in Bash, or any other shell, I assure you that the problem would be solved in a day, if not sooner. Theo -- Theo v.
