I have a bunch of directories:

20130118-Cars_Directory

20130118-Bikes_Directory

20130218-Planes_Directory

20130228-Scooters_Directory

Is there any way to change directories in the manner of typing a partial match in the middle of the command.

Ideally, something in the style of cd *Bikes*<TAB>, and have dash autocomplete the rest?

Actually, by coincidence, it turns out that cd *Bikes*<RETURN> works without any changes to the system.

I am just a little stunned that it didn't require quotes around *Bikes*.
