Also, tab-completion seems somewhat good. I typed /u and TABbed, and got /usr/.

/usr/bin/lv gives me /usr/bin/leave on first TAB, then cycles through /usr/bin/llvm-g++, etc. on subsequent tabs.

Globbing: ls /*.js did what you'd want within a directory whose subdirectories contain a lot of .js files.

It looks like someone added completions for git (and bzr, hg, if you care): http://tsdh.wordpress.com/2013/05/31/eshell-completion-for-g... Works pretty well.

I wonder if there's a way to provide a bridge with zsh's completions, such that if you have completions for zsh, you have them for eshell.
