Subject: Possible bug in filename completion
Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2007 10:33:54 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5dbc5e390706070733v6c806aa8oa435a89f0421cf97@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I posted the following to gnu.emacs.help:
I have a directory ~/etest containing the following files:
blah
blahblah
blah-blah
blah-1
If I C-x C-f and navigate to this directory, then hit space ONCE, I
see in the minibuffer:
Find file: ~/etest/blah
If I hit space again, I see:
Find file: ~/etest/blah-
If I hit space again, I see that, plus the completions list: blah-1
and blah-blah. It seems to ignore the files without dashes in the name.
Version info: 21.3.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit) of 2005-01-24 on btinstall
This behavior happens whether or not I use my init file. I've done a
great deal of internet searching and can't find any mention of this
behavior, or if there's a way to tweak it to get the behavior I'm
expecting.
Let me know if you need more information.
thanks,
Anne
