For sure. This is another case; which doesn't need completion. > Personally I'd love to being able to work without the extra "./" or "~/" > (I find it redundant), but if it's ambiguous for the tramp syntax, then > I'd prevent that to happen for consistency. IIRC, we have done this because people have claimed that Tramp starts completion when not intended yet. Time consuming. So we have decided that we need a clear indication that the user want's completion. A slash is such a sign. (Well, it is a discussion from 10+ years ago. If I would be urged to find the pointers, it would be real work ...) Best regards, Michael.
