Tab completion works for me now with 2.1.0-pre (12/30). It still does not work with 2.0.2

Dan P was saying that tab completion wasn't working for him when he was using Remote Desktop to connect from a Mac to a remote Windows instance, so I tested Remote Desktop into a Windows 7 machine from another Windows 7 machine and from a Windows XP machine. It still won't reproduce for me ... command completion worked fine over remote desktop from both Windows machines.

Will need hands-on access to a machine exibiting this issue to make any progress.

I tested the downloaded package mongodb-win32-x86_64-1.9.2.zip (official) in Windows 7 x64 (no Bootcamp, no virtual machine, hardware built on Asus motherboard) and it also works fine for me. I also tested the 32-bit version from mongodb-win32-i386-1.9.2.zip on 64-bit Windows 7 and it also works.

There are changes in tab completion in 1.9 compared to 1.8 related to changing from readline() to linenoise() that could have confused the issue, making a problem look platform-specific when it is a different issue.

The current (2011-10-02) code built from source is working for me in x64 on Windows 7. Tab completion behaves the same as 32-bit.

Seems to be only on my machine running Windows on Macbook pro using Bootcamp. Tab completion does not work with official builds or builds from source. Changing priority to minor. Checked registry to verify that command completion character is set to 9 (tab).
