How to make auto complete available for directories in cdpath for tcsh?
Solution 1:
I'm using tcsh 6.18.01-3 under Debian Jessie and file complete is available with the TAB key in the same way that its available under bash.
Can you upgrade to the newer version?
Also: https://kb.iu.edu/d/aids suggests that it should just work with TAB for you. Don't use ESC key.
