Since the newest tcsh build on Cygwin (i'm using cygwin64),
version tcsh 6.19.00 (Astron) 2015-05-21 (x86_64-unknown-cygwin) options
wide,nls,dl,al,kan,sm,rh,color
the completion of files using TAB does not work anymore.
It works fine under bash.
I've inserted [TAB] where I have pressed Tab.
On tcsh I just get "<link_name> as a response.
The problem only occurs with trying soft links "ln -s" not hard links "ln".
12:34:48pm ingber@lesterX1:~% touch tp1
12:35:00pm ingber@lesterX1:~% ln -s ./t [TAB]
<link_name>
12:35:00pm ingber@lesterX1:~% ln -s ./tp1 tp2
12:35:15pm ingber@lesterX1:~% ls -l
-rw-r--r-- 1 ingber Users 0 Jul 2 12:35 tp1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ingber Users 5 Jul 2 12:35 tp2 -> ./tp1
12:38:09pm ingber@lesterX1:~% bash
[12:38:13 ingber@lesterX1 ~]$ touch tp3
[12:38:23 ingber@lesterX1 ~]$ ln -s ./tp [TAB]
tp1 tp2 tp3
[12:38:23 ingber@lesterX1 ~]$ ln -s ./tp3 tp4
[12:39:22 ingber@lesterX1 ~]$ ls -l
-rw-r--r-- 1 ingber Users 0 Jul 2 12:35 tp1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ingber Users 5 Jul 2 12:35 tp2 -> ./tp1
-rw-r--r-- 1 ingber Users 0 Jul 2 12:38 tp3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ingber Users 5 Jul 2 12:38 tp4 -> ./tp3
I've compiled the new tcsh on several linux platforms,
and this problem does not occur.
