TAB Completion in DOS

June 19, 2006

This is for people who love doing stuff in the CLI (Command Line Interface).. Playing around with the . / TAB keys ;)

And what DOS misses is that wonderful command and directory completion feature available in linux shells. To enable TAB completion in DOS :

1. Start Registry Editor with start -\> run -\> regedit

Find the CompletionChar property on the right and change its value from 0 to 9 :)

Open up a command prompt and Give it a try ;)
