# Post Installation Setup

## Setting up Tab Completion

Currently, we use [argcomplete](https://github.com/kislyuk/argcomplete) to automatically do tab completion through argparse.

Once you've installed nxc globally, do the following:

{% hint style="info" %}
Installing with pipx is recommended for global availability
{% endhint %}

```bash
sudo apt install python3-argcomplete

# For Bash
register-python-argcomplete nxc >> ~/.bashrc

# For Zsh
register-python-argcomplete nxc >> ~/.zshrc
```

Open a new shell and you are ready to go:

```bash
NetExec
netexec
nxc
```

## Configuring NetExec's Homefolder

NetExec will create a folder to which the `nxc.conf` configuration file and all other data created/extracted during day-to-day use are written. The default folder that will be created is `~/.nxc`. If you would like to change the destination folder set the environment variable `NXC_PATH` to the target folder.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.netexec.wiki/getting-started/installation/setting-up-tab-completion.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
