RE: auto tab complete

[Vince Hoffman <Vince dot Hoffman at uk dot circle dot com>]

Tab auto complete is provided by the shell. If you are using ssh, bash or
tcsh and probably ksh can provide it (if configured to.) ncftp will support
it if you are using that as an ftp client as will lftp. I dont know of a
sftp client that will provide it though, (but then i dont know that there
isnt one that does either.)
