It *does* insert nslookup. The example above was slightly incorrect; the actual screenshot after TAB is (with cursor immediately after nslookup) bor@itsrm2% nslookup Completing external command nslookup Completing shell function nslookup So, in this case I believe, that - no list is to be displayed (we have just a single match) - exact match should be immediately accepted and space inserted If you like to see list in this case ... another style? -andrej
