Done Make [tab] work in paths containing a %var

[nickles]

My third attempt to get this feature into the app:

Make [tab] work in tokens containing environment variables as follows:

dir %systemroot%\a*[tab]

Here [tab] - on continuous key presses - should return the next file/directory name starting with 'a' in the directory pointed to by %systemroot%.

[tab] should however not expand %systemroot% beforehand.

Right now - before being able to use [tab] - you have to expand any variables with [ctrl-x], leaving you with the expanded value of the variable in the command line.

That does not work for those of us who use email! This NG (subforum) is a proper venue for submitting suggestions. IMHO the name "Feedback" implies a response to the website, not to product behavior.

I will continue to monitor suggestions here, but as I said before suggestions posted here will always be given lower priority than ones posted on the feedback forum.
