Yes, but some questions, Juri: * wouldn't any other face, say "underline", serve the same purpose? * would you not be equally and efficiently informed of such facts if completions-common-part were _more_ prominent and completions-first-difference was _less_ prominent? * In completion styles other than "basic", there are many other characters, besides the one marked with completions-first-difference, that you type to narrow completion further, right? >> - underlined (tho I don't like underlined text very much)? >> - some foreground color? > For several years I've been using completions-common-part > inherited from the 'shadow' face, and it works pretty well > for this purpose. Do you use mainly the "basic" completion style? I.e. do you customize "completion-styles"? Thanks, Jo=C3=A3o
