From a159cfb8ee80e24de180d002caa61119edc7afc1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Spencer Baugh Date: Fri, 21 Apr 2023 14:55:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Handle point not at EOB in minibuffer-choose-completion Without this change, only the minibuffer contents before point are cleared when a completion is chosen, which results in stray text when point is in the middle of the minibuffer. After this change, we heuristically decide either to clear the whole buffer or only part of it, taking into account the location of point. This is a backport for the Emacs 29 release branch of a simpler fix in minibuffer-completion-help. * lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer-next-completion): (minibuffer-choose-completion): Recalculate completion-base-affixes with point --- lisp/minibuffer.el | 26 +++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/lisp/minibuffer.el b/lisp/minibuffer.el index dfb06b5b88f..86946ec9ce1 100644 --- a/lisp/minibuffer.el +++ b/lisp/minibuffer.el @@ -4464,13 +4464,21 @@ minibuffer-next-completion When `minibuffer-completion-auto-choose' is non-nil, then also insert the selected completion to the minibuffer."
