Hi there,
In emacs 24 the following 'message' produces the empty string if you just hit enter at the mini-buffer prompt. In emacs 23, the 'guess' variable is printed as expected.
Is this a known bug?
(let* ((default-directory "~/path/to/project/")
(guess (concat default-directory ".foo"))
(file (read-file-name
"Foo: "
(file-name-directory guess)
guess
nil
(file-name-nondirectory guess)
)))
(message file))

Works for me with the current trunk on GNU/Linux.
"Emacs 24" covers a multitude of sins - what do you mean by it?
(M-x report-emacs-bug gives this information.)

Apologies...
Mac OS X 10.7.2 (aka Lion)
$ brew install emacs --cocoa --use-git-head --HEAD
# alias emacs="~/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw"
# alias e="~/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw -Q"
$ emacs -version

Ah, thanks. Will use that in future.

Perhaps it is specific to --with-ns, although that seems odd.
Does anyone else see this issue?

Are you still seeing this problem in Emacs 24.3?

Been a while. Let’s see…
Mac OS X 10.9.1 (Mavericks)
$ brew install emacs --cocoa --use-git-head —HEAD
$ brew linkapps
# alias emacs24="/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw"
# alias e24="/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw -Q”
$ $ emacs24 -version
GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1
…
seems to be okay.
cheers, Lachlan
