It is pleasingly simple. I have a few comments on details.
+ initial_define_key (Vminibuffer_local_filename_completion_map, '\t',
+ "minibuffer-complete");
+ initial_define_key (Vminibuffer_local_filename_completion_map, '?',
"minibuffer-completion-help");
I think it would be cleaner to use Vminibuffer_local_completion_map
as this map's parent, and override only the SPC character.
*** For filenames, Space is not bound to completion any longer
You need a period after that. Also, it should be "SPC", not "Space".
Filenames with spaces can be input intuitively with the space bar now,
space is not bound to `minibuffer-complete-word' any longer.
That should be "SPC", not "space". Also, it is a run-on sentence.
A new key map minibuffer-local-filename-completion-map applies whenever
a file name is prompted for.
That is passive--please rewrite it in the active voice.
