    so the idea is if you have a folder called Data and you write da (lowercase) in the terminal, hitting tab will autocomplete Data? And what happens in ambiguous cases? It gives both options or fallbacks to the corresponding case match?

    Yes, @U01A5ARAXP0, cd da will autocomplete to cd Data/.
    If itโ€™s ambiguous, then you will see all posible options below (as default behaviour).

    thanks for sharing... but now seeing the video I got a little disappointed... you have Data, but the autocomplete will do data... and even the pwd shows the lowercase version, was not expecting that...
