Details:

This is somewhat obscure but there seems to be a branch in the parser for
which <TAB> complete is not recognized.  The test example uses "hann<TAB>"
which should auto-complete to hanning.  Other examples with directories such
as "/hom<TAB>" also exhibit the same problem.

Sample code


x' * hann<TAB>   # Nothing completes
hann<TAB>        # Completes to "hanning"
x' hann<TAB>     # Completes to "x' hanning' " which may be a 
                   clue that the parser thinks sommething with
                   strings is going on.
