My keyboard came with a tab key, so I don't worry about my commands having short names.

  Until you have five commands which all use the prefix `sort-incoming-` and then three commands named `sort-incoming-hourly` and `sort-incoming-monthly` etc.

    It would be nice to have camel-case completion in the shell, i.e. have “SIH” be completed to “SortIncomingHourly” and “SIM” to “SortIncomingMonthly”, etc. (only for upper-case characters). That way one could get more mileage out of the possible character combinations.

      Well, not exactly tab completion, but I have `fzf`[0] tied to my history search. That allows me to type `soriloco`, punch ctrl+r and be prompted with `some ridiculously long command` (if, of course, I've run it before). Combined with infinite history this trick has saved me a bunch of typing and even proper remembering. :P [0]: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf https://github.com/junegunn/fzf

        Yes, fuzzy matching is the way to go. Tab completion isn’t good enough any more.
