Ahh... if only I could get the new user's minds around Tab complete (even though it's there in Microsoft as well, they've never discovered it) and up arrow to the previous command :-P Instead they laboriously retype the commands or type in long paths... and typos are inevitable... sigh.

How do you do command completion in XP???
Hit tab. You may need to enable it using one of the various "tweaker" tools (or, if you're really a hardcore Windows hacker, edit the registry). In X-Setup Pro (http://www.x-setup.net/), it's Program Options -> Built-In Windows Apps -> Command Prompt -> CMD Directory AutoComplete Key and ... -> CMD File AutoComplete Key.
