Is it possible to have bash be case-insensitive when completing?

i.e. I don't have to *know* the exact case for completion to succeed.
I'd like to be able to type either:
  ls /c/winn<TAB>     OR
  ls /c/WINN<TAB>

... and have them both complete.  Emacs' shell-mode seems to support this.


Also is there a way to get completion to work when a drive letter is
present?

Eg. the following will not complete:

  ls c:/<TAB>

Thanks,

    --- John
