Making Terminal bash auto-complete stop at ambiguous character and display all possible options The behavior I see happening is that when I type something partially and hit TAB, if there are multiple files/commands that match what I had typed in, only the first one is displayed. Further TAB hits result in other matches being shown. Instead, I want the auto-completion to fill till the first ambiguous character and then if I hit TAB again, display all possible choices (as in say Ubuntu terminal). This is what I have in my .inputrc:

set completion-ignore-case on
set show-all-if-ambiguous on 
TAB: menu-complete


The show-all-if-ambiguous seems to be what I am looking for, but it doesn't seem to work for me. 

I actually want the behavior that this member doesn't:

Skip first terminal beep and to display ambiguous filename expansions

I like hearing the first BEEP (or stop) and then typing in some more characters to fix the ambiguity.
Thanks to comment from mtklr. Many web pages that talk about Mac OS X Terminal auto-complete asks you to add the 3 lines I mention in my question. But if you want behavior as on say Ubuntu, you need just the first 2 lines:
set completion-ignore-case on
set show-all-if-ambiguous on 

Do not add TAB: menu-complete
