Install BASH...
The TAB thingy is a BASH feature
> And also how can I install a shell bash in the freebsd?
You can install bash from the ports:
cd /usr/ports/shells/bash2
make
make install
Which is how I'd do it.
Or you can do can install the precompiled package:
pkg_add bash-2.02.1.tgz
but this is from memory so check the docs.
Both methods should download the files you need form the internet. If you
only have the CDs then check the doc - I can't remember how this works (I've
got a 155Mbps pipe so I've never needed to do this).
