Being in vim.tiny in command mode and executing some shell command with :!, is there a way that I can benefit from the shell expansions, namely from the filename generation?
When I simply enter key, the filename does not get expanded, instead I get the ^I character.

    What is it specifically that you'd like to do? An "expansion" can be many different things, such as variable expansion, command substitution, brace expansion, filename generation (globbing) etc.

    @stevica Vim has tab completion for filenames. You can do :edit some<tab>/somepther<tab>, for example. There's also :find someOtherDocu

    In nvi you should :set filec=<tab>, where <tab> is an actual Tab you can enter with Ctrl-V Ctrl-I or Ctrl-V Tab. You can put that in your ~/.nexrc.

    In the standard vi there simply isn't such feature.
