BTW, the default completion in Emacs-23 is very close to partial-completion-mode. More to the point, if you remove `basic' from `completion-styles', it should be pretty much identical except for the following known differences: - no style completion for file names. - M-x lch TAB doesn't know how to expand to `list-command-history'. And even if you don't remove `basic', the behavior is fairly close. Also it should fix the problem you're reporting and provides a few improvements. Since partial-completion-mode is slated for obsolescence (tho not marked obsolete yet), I'm interested to hear if you find some other missing feature. Stefan
