Tab — autocomplete paths and commands
Completes a partially typed file path or slash command name, the same way shell tab-completion works.
Typing the start of a filename and pressing Tab fills in the rest (or shows matching options if there's more than one) rather than you needing to type or remember an exact path.
The same works for slash commands — enough characters to disambiguate, then Tab, rather than typing the full command name every time.
It's a small efficiency habit, but for anyone referencing specific files often in a session, it adds up the same way shell completion does for typing commands.
