E.g. if there's only /ver/spool that matches, then why have me type C-x d / v a r / s p when C-x d / v a r / s p would be good enough. I mean it's not like find-file where I might want to create a new file... OK, at least don't just give up, but stay in the minibuffer with asking me to complete the name. Seems I reported something like the before. -- http://jidanni.org/ Taiwan(04)25854780
