Making a better, prettier, more functional Windows Command Line

It's possible in bash too. In your .bashrc:

    # tab key: cycle through the list of partial matches
    bind "\C-I":menu-complete

    # ^p: traditional completion
    bind "\C-p":complete

Also, I have my Shift-TAB bound to menu-complete-reverse. The way I got it to work is to chuck these two lines into ~/.inputrc

  TAB: menu-complete
  "\e[Z": "\e-1\C-i"

The second line is the non-obvious one, can't remember where I found it. I wasn't able to get this to run unless it was in .inputrc though.
