Imagine you have this:
~/tmp/esh $ ls
long_file_name.gif
and want to do this
~/tmp/esh $ rm long_<pressing TAB here completes the filename>
That works ok, eshell completes the filename. But what if I want to
rename that file to long_file_name.jpeg? This does not work as I want:
~/tmp/esh $ mv long_<pressing TAB here completes the filename> lo<TAB
again, nothing happens, eshell just beeps at me>
I guess eshell is trying to be smart here, but in this case it is too
smart for my taste... :)
Any variable I might want to customize and any drawbacks?
