When I type <code>rad [Tab]</code> in my shell (<a href="http://www.zsh.org/">zsh</a>) it kindly completes this to <code>radi</code> and gives a list of the other completions since there are several to choose from.

So if I generally choose radiopaedia then <code>rad [Tab]</code> would complete to radiopaedia but still show the list of option. * radiopaedia
* radiopaedia-stable
