Subject: find-file tab completion misses a file
Date: Wed, 02 Jun 2004 10:02:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <40BD899D.8040709@gmx.net> (raw)
In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2004-04-07 on raven, modified by Debian
configured using `configure '--build=i386-linux' '--host=i386-linux'
'--prefix=/usr' '--sharedstatedir=/var/lib' '--libexecdir=/usr/lib'
'--localstatedir=/var/lib' '--infodir=/usr/share/info'
'--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--with-pop=yes' '--with-x=yes'
'--with-x-toolkit=athena' 'CFLAGS=-DDEBIAN -g -O2'

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
In an arbitrary directory, for example in /tmp , I have a file named
iptraffic.log and a directory called iptrafvol. In emacs I type C-x C-f
to try to load iptraffic.log and type "/tmp/ip<tab>" where <tab> means
the tab key. Then tab completion completes to the "/tmp/iptrafvol/"
directory and ignores the iptraffic.log file.

Fundamental principle of Buddhism is purposelessness. Most important
to attain state of no purpose. When you drop fart, you don't say 'At
9:00, I drop fart.' It just happen.
