I refactored the tab completion. It is still not friendly with white space in
filenames, but this is somehow acceptable.
When I worked on this, I found that BSD disklabel support is broken, although
it should have worked in PUPA. I don't know why it is broken. For now, BSD
support is not my priority, so I myself won't investigate this problem in
near future. If you are interested in *BSD, please take a look at it.
Next, I will fix some buggy behaviors of the entry editor and add more useful
features.

Why do you ask this? I have a disk image of NetBSD. I don't remember the
version number.

Hi Okuji,
I ask because there could be bugs in the writing of the disk label.
Knowing that it was NetBSD (I will guess it was NetBSD/i386, but
please correct me if I am wrong here) helps considerabily, and knowing
either the approximate age of when you installed the partition, or the
version would help even more.
Depending on the time demands of family, work and near term tasks at
the radio observatory where I am in charge of the IT, I hope to have
my build server back up in a few days. Once that is done, I will look
into getting a test machine up and look at this problem. If you could
in the meantime pass me any additional details, I would appreciate it.
