Yeah, using double-<ESC> works fine for filename completion. I was just pointing out that there's no way to map it to TAB (as far as I know), like bash uses.

How about just use <ESC> for filename completion? I'm using 11/16/88 version ksh.

$ set -o emacs
$ what /bin/ksh
/bin/ksh:

        Version M-11/16/88i
        SunOS 5.8 Generic 110662-04 May 2001

$ touch yongtest
$ ls yongtest
yongtest

The last line was typed by pressing "ls yongt<ESC><ESC>".
