I did this yesterday in Bash. I typed "hg add " and pressed tab. Of all 
the dozens of files in the current folder, it immediately completed with 
the single (deeply nested) file that I hadn't added.

I have literally no idea how it does that.

Annoyingly, if you type "systemctl restart x" and hit tab, it fails to 
notice that xdm.service is the only possible completion...

...none of which has much to do with /scripting/ tasks, but anyway.
