Terminal, how to quit --More-- list
You can type in the Q key. ...
This doesn't directly answer your question (@saiarco895 did that), but I hate the default behavior of tab-completion in bash for the same reason. Assuming you're using Bash, you can change the behavior of the readline library it uses by editing the ~/.inputrc
file. I put the following in it:
set menu-complete-display-prefix On
"\CTAB": possible-completions
TAB: menu-complete
"\x1b[Z": menu-complete-backward
which allows me to cycle through completion options without printing them out using tab
and shift-tab
. If I need to see a print-out of all options, I use alt-shift-?
