Command line completion generally only works in Interactive Mode . Unix Shell s have a tradition of advanced and customizable completion capabilities. For further details see the external links section below. Command line completion is often invoked by default by the Tab Key and thus sometimes called tab completion even when bound to a different key or key combination. COMPLETION IN MICROSOFT OPERATING SYSTEMS Originally, MS-DOS did not have command line completion. Pressing the tab key would just advance the Cursor . Before the release of Windows , various enhanced shells for MS-DOS such as 4DOS would feature Unix-style tab completion. The Cmd.exe command processor of Windows NT -based systems supports completion (with the possibility to use a separate key-binding for matching directory names only).
