Unfortunately the constant beeping when you hit tab to complete a filename on the command line is tedious.
To turn that off, add the following to /etc/inputrc or ~/.inputrc:
+<pre>
set show-all-if-ambiguous on
+</pre>
and bash will just display the possible completions instead of beeping at you.
Your office companions will probably like this.
