An occasion arose for completion-table-in-turn but disappointed to discovered this deficiency. 1. Emacs -q -l t.el 2. M-x t-setup 3. type TAB till the *Completions* buffer pops up I saw: Possible completions are: abc def ghi The other table is ignored. Completion in the buffer still works for the second table. But minibuffer-completion-help provides little help in this case. Leo
