Regarding the *Completions* buffer,
   Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
   In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

   Possible completions are:
   ../				   ./
   MAKEFLOPPIES			   a2dismod
   a2dissite			   a2enmod
   a2ensite			   ab...

Hurmf, wasted 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 lines of precious completion buffer
space, depending on one's experience.  Might as well throw in a total
count of how many completions, like bash if lots. And mention the
variables to limit the above verboseness.
