Ah what a neat trick. I have been putting up with no colors for years
because I thought it was something that didn't work.

Now would it be possible to pass the tab command directly to the
shell? Now that bash has programmable tab completion I would like to
use it withing emacs. I would like to have the same behavior when I am
running bash in a console and when it's running in emacs.
