  21      <dl>
  22 <dt><code>complete (&lt;TAB&gt;)</code>
  23      <dd>Attempt to perform completion on the text before point.
  24 The actual completion performed is application-specific.
  25 The default is filename completion.
  26
  27      <br><dt><code>possible-completions (M-?)</code>
  28      <dd>List the possible completions of the text before point.
  29
  30      <br><dt><code>insert-completions (M-*)</code>
  31      <dd>Insert all completions of the text before point that would have
  32 been generated by <code>possible-completions</code>.
  33
  34      <br><dt><code>menu-complete ()</code>
  35      <dd>Similar to <code>complete</code>, but replaces the word to be completed
  36 with a single match from the list of possible completions.
  37 Repeated execution of <code>menu-complete</code> steps through the list
  38 of possible completions, inserting each match in turn.
  39 At the end of the list of completions, the bell is rung
  40 (subject to the setting of <code>bell-style</code>)
  41 and the original text is restored.
  42 An argument of <var>n</var> moves <var>n</var> positions forward in the list
  43 of matches; a negative argument may be used to move backward
  44 through the list.
  45 This command is intended to be bound to &lt;TAB&gt;, but is unbound
  46 by default.
  47
  48      <br><dt><code>delete-char-or-list ()</code>
  49      <dd>Deletes the character under the cursor if not at the beginning or
  50 end of the line (like <code>delete-char</code>).
  51 If at the end of the line, behaves identically to
  52 <code>possible-completions</code>.
  53 This command is unbound by default.
