In bash, zsh, tcsh and other modern #Linux / #Unix shells, you can use the [TAB] key to autocomplete filenames.
01) If there are multiple possibilities, pressing [TAB] will display a list of matching files.
02) If there's only one option, pressing TAB will complete the filename for you.
Very handy to save time and typing. Try it out.
