Actually after I tried out a few tips that I liked I see that you have described them a little bit wrong.

This is wrong:

    * C-x / which does filename completion,
    * C-x $ which does bash variable completion,
    * C-x @ which does hostname completion and,
    * C-x ! which does command completion.

They just show possible completions. The actual completions are done with Meta key + / or $ or @ or ! respectively.
