How can I type less?
One of the shell's power tools is tab completion.
If you start typing the name of a file and then press the tab key,
the shell will do its best to auto-complete the path.
For example,
if you type sea and press tab,
it will fill in the directory name seasonal/ (with a trailing slash).
If you then type a and tab,
it will complete the path as seasonal/autumn.csv.
If the path is ambiguous,
such as seasonal/s,
pressing tab a second time will display a list of possibilities.
Typing another character or two to make your path more specific
and then pressing tab
will fill in the rest of the name.
