+title: Tab Madness

+
+I saw yesterday's post on <a href="http://www.slashdot.org/">Slashdot</a>
+about <a href="http://www.zsh.org/">Zsh</a>, and I decided to give it
+a try. I really liked the tab completion and a few other features,
+but Zsh was just too different than Bash for me to make a permanent
+switch. So I decided to upgrade to Bash 2.04 and mess with it's
+programmable completion instead. I started with a few from the samples
+included with Bash and added a bunch for things like tar, ssh, and
+cvs. Several people on #e asked for my completions, so I decided to
+clean them up a bit, add an installer script, and put them online.
+The result is <a href="/projects/bash_tweaks/">Bash Tweaks</a>. Enjoy.
+<br /><br />
+
+I've been learning more about
+<a href="http://www.xmlsoft.org/">XML</a>, and I decided to work on
+making this page a bit more transitional friendly. I've converted
+the sidebar and all the server-side includes, which means most of
+the layout for the page should be okay, but I haven't started on
+all the content yet. I decided to preserve rendering in older
+browsers (mainly Netscape 4). The two tags that it seems to get
+pissed off about are <code>&lt;br/&gt;</code> and
+<code>&lt;div align="center"&gt</code>, so I'm going to stick with the
+more compatible, but less compliant <code>&lt;br&gt;</code> and
+<code>&lt;center&gt</code> (at least until everyone can affort to run a
+modern browser).

+Finally, if you've got a GeForce 2 MX TwinView (and possibly even
+a GeForce 2 MX), and you want to try the NVidia 0.9-7 drivers, be
+sure you grab the 0.9-769 drivers, _not_ the 0.9-767 drivers. I
+consistently got hard locks in Quake 3 with the 0.9-767 drivers, but
+the 0.9-769 drivers appear to be working okay. Okay, that's it for
+today.
