Perhaps we should simple tell shell.el to configure pcomplete so that it behaves like Emacs' standard (and dumb yet straightforward) completion. That could be an ok solution if it really achieves the effect. But why have the overhead of loading pcomplete just to get the same results as before? It seems better just to revert the change; people who want pcomplete behavior can rebind those characters to run pcomplete easily enough. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
