Can I make powershell tab complete show me all options, rather than picking a specific one?
In Powershell, if I type:
install-<tab>
Powershell tab completion will complete with a single command that starts with install-
Install-Package
And I can hit Tab again to see different completions.
Is it possible to have Powershell show all options that start with what I typed, like Linux or Unix shell? Eg, if I type:
install-<tab>
I get:
Install-Package
Install-PackageProvider
Install-Script
Solution
PSReadLine has a feature like this called MenuComplete. Instead of Tab, press Ctrl+<space>:
You can bind the MenuComplete function to Tab with Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler:
Set-PSReadlineKeyHandler -Chord Tab -Function MenuComplete
