Description dev.lh 2021-02-11 20:53:19 UTC
As far as I know, there is currently (I can only test on konsole 17.12.3) no auto completion when typing a file in brace expansion mode.
It would be nice if this got fixed as it limits the use of brace expansion to easily typeable filenames.


How to reproduce:
1. mkdir -p test/{aa,bb,cc}
Test command: rm -r test/{aa,b


Observed result:
pressing tab does nothing


Expected result:
pressing tab should insert the missing b or display a list of possible filename options if more than one file matches the given filename (standard auto completion behavior)

Konsole has nothing to do with shell completion, you should look at the shell (bash, zhs...etc) you're using for that feature.

Ah sorry,
I did not know that autocompletion is a level deeper than konsoleā€¦

No worries (we have all been beginners at some point :)).
