Basically I like this functionality. But it still doesn't work as I expected. It is not easy to use as ffap. For instance I can't easily put URLs at point to the minibuffer created by C-x C-f. Unlike ffap that puts the URL to the minibuffer just after typing C-x C-f, `M-.' requires typing more keys: C-x C-f C-a C-k C-u M-. When I suggested adding the thing at point instead of replacing the minibuffer input, I meant that preserving the minibuffer input is needed only for the input typed by the user, but not for the initial input. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
