Instead I have to write them out explicitly (foo/bar/baz), i.e. this is exactly what I wanted to avoid. (2) Even if I could do TAB completion on directories within the path, this is not what I'm looking for, because it is still cumbersome to type. :-( Ronald -- Ronald Fischer + If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, + and the bus is interrupted and the interrupt's not caught, + then the socket packet pocket has an error to report. + (cited after Peter van der Linden)
