 All of the coretools are able to do tab\-completion. Say, you want to install the module 'xfce4\-panel' just go ahead and type 'lin xfce4\-p<\s-1TAB\s0>' and lin is going to append the rest of the module's name to the command. Once there are too few characters to resolve the name into one single module you just need to hit \s-1TAB\s0 twice to get a list of all the modules starting with the characters you just typed i.e. 'lin xfce<\s-1TAB\s0><\s-1TAB\s0>' is going to give you a list of all modules starting with 'xfce'.
