Aye... thats pretty handy too...

Nope.... it auto completes files and directories that don't exist

Presume you can just grab "http://www.caliban.org/files/bash/bash-completion-20040711.tar.gz"
extract and source the bash_completion file... not sure if the contrib is
important... Other option is to just use debian sarge and source
/etc/bash_completion
