This looks like FreeBSD.
When I tab for cd into "/usr/ports/x11" I get prompted with:
x11/ x11-fm/ x11-servers/ x11-wm/
x11-clocks/ x11-fonts/ x11-toolkits/
and I see:
% print -l /usr/ports/x11-*/bb*
/usr/ports/x11-clocks/bbdate
/usr/ports/x11-wm/bbkeys
/usr/ports/x11-wm/bbpager
So what completion do you have set up for cd? A form which will
backtrack to try and handle spelling mistakes?
