Shell , *Completions* , frames.

Bonjour.

1. enable in your .emacs frames for special buffers, or evaluate the expression ci-dessous using M-:

;; open some buffers in frames, not in windows
(defconst special-display-regexps '("[ ]?[*][^*]+[*]"))

2. M-x shell
3. wish to run for example splint. Write: spl <TAB>. The *Completions* frame opens.

BUG: Cursor moved to *Completions* window, *Completions* is now active, but the keyboard is active on the old frame, with the shell window, now in *Completions*.

In fact, the problem is that TAB or another key does not scroll in *Completions*.

Hello.

I have just solved the bug I reported on 4th, by selecting *Completions* frame after I press TAB.

But I see that M. Nick Roberts has already solved something identical, but he says nothing of frames.

Shell I still send the patch to EMACS-DEVEL?

	* comint.el (comint-dynamic-list-completions): Allow user to
	select *Completions* buffer.

Alin Soare.

    But I see that M. Nick Roberts has already solved something
    identical, but he says nothing of frames.

I am not quite sure what those words mean; I am not sure
whether you are saying he has already fixed the same bug,
or that he fixed a different bug.

If the bug has been fixed already in the CVS sources
then please don't do anything about it.
If the bug has not been fixed, please mail in your patch.
