Subject: bug#1062: 23.0.60; minibuffer-completion-help incomplete
Date: Wed, 01 Oct 2008 12:00:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87od24ljmz.fsf@escher.local.home> (raw)

GNU Emacs 23.0.60.5 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9) of
2008-10-01 on escher

1. emacs -Q
2. Let some directory contain the files "tested" and "Testing" and no other
   files beginning with "test" or "Test".
3. M-x set-variable RET read-file-name-completion-ignore-case RET t RET
4. C-x C-f <directory/in/step/2>/test
5. Now type TAB or "?" and a *Completions* buffer pops that shows only
   "tested" as a possible completion.  However, typing "i" next and then
   TAB does complete to "Testing".

If before doing step 4 completion-styles is set to (emacs22), then after
the first TAB or ? in step 5 the *Completions* buffer shows both
"tested" and "Testing".

The following patch makes the *Completions* buffer show all possible
completions in step 5 also with the default completion-style basic, but
I don't know if it has undesirable consequences elsewhere.
