Description 

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Windows-10-10.0.19041
ChimeraX Version: 1.3rc202110222254 (2021-10-22 22:54:52 UTC)
Description
Accidentally bumped return while starting to type a command, and all my cartoons disappeared. Apparently just a bare "~" expands to "~ribbon". Is that intended behaviour?

Doesn't seem like good behavior.

The particular expansion is a surprise. But it is by design. Partial commands expand to the first command registered with that prefix. This follows what we did with Chimera, so you don't have to type the whole command word. ~ribbon must be the first one registered with a leading ~. As long as commands are registered in the same order, this allows scripts with partial commands to continue to work even if, latter, additional commands are registered with the same prefix. But the order in which bundles/commands are registered is not completely deterministic. So this design feature should be revisited.
