Thanks for the informations, I managed to find an easy way to look in the big "man bash" :) I typed locate bash | grep man so I found a bash.1.gz, I un-gzip-ed it, launched a grep show bash.1 -n found the line #4422 , and it said: --------------------- .B show-all-if-ambiguous (Off) This alters the default behavior of the completion functions. If set to on , words which have more than one possible completion cause the matches to be listed immediately instead of ringing the bell. ---------------------- meaning that "set show-all-if-ambiguous on" should do what I want... but it doesn't. Shame! regards GuyCLO~
