Create on-the-fly hostname lists for ssh tab completion
Authored by: edaominoratto on Mon, Mar 24 2008 at 10:49AM PDT

Does anyone know how to get complete to work case insensitive?

I have set completion-ignore-case On (in .inputrc), but what I define to get completed remains case sensitive.

Example: When I use complete -W "Foo" ls, then ls f[TAB] doesn't return a result (while ls F[TAB] does).
