Tips: "Finish command"

Tips: Ever wanted to finish off command at the commandline just like Linux?.

Solution: To be able to for instance type "ed" and hit the "tab" key so it will finnish off with "edit" for you to edit your file, do the following:.

Locate the Registry subkey:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
  \Software
   \Control Panel
    \Microsoft
     \Command Processor  
      \Completion Char

  • Set this REG_DWORD value to '9' which is tab. And voila! :)
