Those completion functions are a bit under-documented, though. I've now rewritten `read-library-name' to not use that function at all, and instead just complete over all the .el/.el.gz files "manually". -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
