Subject: bug#18951: 24.4.51; eshell-pcomplete removes asterisk when attempting completion
Date: Wed, 05 Nov 2014 07:50:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <86tx2ei4b4.fsf@yandex.ru> (raw)

1. Open a new Eshell session.
2. Type `*'.
3. Press `TAB' (invoking `eshell-pcomplete'), or `M-x pcomplete', or
   `M-x completion-at-point'.
4. See the asterisk removed as the completions buffer is displayed.

I don't think it makes much sense (just replace it when a completion is
inserted), and it's quite inconvenient when
`pcomplete-completions-at-point' is used from company-mode during idle
completion, as reported here:
