2005-07-07 -+- Richard Neill -+- -+- Noooo! There's a much better way - and then you'll find the beeps useful.

What you want is to have this line in /etc/inputrc
set show-all-if-ambiguous on

Then, the computer will show you the options if there are multiple possibilities, and beep at you only if there is an error. Combined with bash_completion, it is wonderful!
