This is for people, like me, who come from ten years of Windows PowerShell, and are more an more using Linux (through the Windows Subsystem for Linux).
Here is a snippet from the bash manual. The search terms of interest are "completing" and "tab". The main section to read is "completing".
On my keyboard, the M-
means ESC
, so M-?
means the
key combination ESC-?
(press escape and then question mark).
We can bind keys from bash with bind TAB:menu-complete
(for example). We can
run that directly or put it in our ~/.bashrc
file.
