View source for Better Bash Configs


These are just some things I add to my bashrc for enhancing the features of Bash.

<source lang="sh">

# For better tab completion on symlink directories
# Normal behavior: With folder symlink "Documents", Type "Doc", Tab once auto-completes
#                  to "Documents", Tab again it completes to "Documents/".
# New behavior:    With folder symlink "Documents", Type "Doc", Tab once auto-completes
#                  to "Documents/". Nice.
if ! [ -d "~/.inputrc" ];then
        if [ -r "/etc/inputrc" ];then
                cp /etc/inputrc ~/.inputrc
        elif [ -r "/etc/inputrc.default" ];then
                cp /etc/inputrc.default ~/.inputrc
        else
                touch ~/.inputrc
        fi
        echo -e "\nset mark-symlinked-directories on" >>~/.inputrc
fi
