Pressing tab for word completion in command line mode switches to search mode in Vim?

But if it's specifically related to interacting with the filesystem it could be something else. Have you tried a different termcap and/or using the gui version instead of the console version to see if the issue is reproducible?

When loading a file, lets call it foobar. Txt, like so: :b foo Where is me pressing the tab key, sometimes I am redirected from the command line (:) to the search prompt (/) but other times it works fine. I am having trouble recreating the exact situation, but I know that I have had this same problem with at least these three commands: :badd :b :vsplit Can anyone tell me why this would ever happen?

– puk 3 hours ago I second that this is something weird. I think this is a good thing to take to the Vim mailing list, with a dump of :ver and other info about your platform. – Kaz 2 hours ago I'll go ahead and do that right now – puk 2 hours ago.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
