Actually I have things setup so that I can do filename completion in the normal grep input minibuffer (where of course the history stores both expression and filename); I find this setup almost perfect... (define-key minibuffer-local-map "\t" 'comint-dynamic-complete) [it's also handy for `shell-command' &c -- of course commands that read strings that _don't_ involve filenames _also_ get filename completion, but I haven't noticed any real problem with this; maybe it would be nice to have minibuffer input for `commands' use a specific keymap though.] I find multiple-prompt interfaces quite annoying by contrast. -Miles -- I'd rather be consing.
