Definitely: TAB and SPC work differently --- I believe TAB completes
just like bash, and SPC completes over breaks in words (dashes).

To find the functions and variables related to any concept, do "M-x
apropos RET regexp" and it will show you all the documentation it can
find.

For super-duper filename completion, check out the Icicles package at
www.emacswiki.org.
