Re: Directory completion problems

...continuation:

~/.java$ cd ../a
~/a$ rm -r .java
~/a$ cd symlink
~/a/symlink$ cd ../ [now completion does not work]
~/a/symlink$ cd ../.java/
~/.java$

So, cd looks into the logical directory, and if the lookup fails, then it
looks into the physical directory. The cd completion from a symlink,
though, needs a file of a given name in both directories, and it does not
matter if the one in the logical directory is even a directory.
