Hi, this is just a query out of interest really.

Every time I install ubuntu the first thing I do is edit /etc/bash.bashrc and uncomment the allow auto complete section.

Why does this always come commented out in new installs? Seems like a useful feature to me.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Matt.

I haven't noticed that tab completion doesn't work - but never looked at that file. Perhaps the file shows default settings? I dunno.

I don't understand - I have tab completion on Bash out-of-the-box without having to uncomment anything. What's different about your system?
