I'm setting up my company's new servers (installing Ubuntu 12.04, the current LTS release) and since a lot of configuration/features have to be "mirrored" from our old servers, I've set up SSH public key authentication so I can simply copy stuff with
scp
(and without entering the password each time) from the old server(s) to the new one(s). And I just got amazed by this: entered the start of the command specifying the server like this:
scp oldserver.ourcompany.hu:/mnt/
then I hit (accidentally) tab ... and voala! The builtin (out-of-the-box) command completion listed all the contents of the
/mnt
directory on the other server! Brilliant. That's what I call user (or admin

) experience.
