Look in /etc/bash_completion.d folder for an "ls" file. If there is
one, then move it somewhere else and open a new console to test your
auto-completion. As far as I can tell, Bash auto-completion hasn't changed.
\ disappeared? can you be more specific? does \ key not work on your
keyboard?? \ is still how you escape characters (like spaces) in the
command line. That hasn't changed. As others have said, you can use "
" to escape spaces. But you still need a working \ sometimes, (such as,
if you need to escape a " in a file name)
