Making eshell expand .. like bash

Question

In bash, due to the layout of my keyboard, I often do cd ..<tab> to have it expand the trailing slash, however, eshell does not do this out of the box. How would I go about making it do this?

Answer 1

That behavior is controlled by the variable eshell-cmpl-dir-ignore. Try

(setq eshell-cmpl-dir-ignore "\\`\\(CVS\\)/\\'")
