Subject: ido-read-file-name default-filename
Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2005 17:14:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <quack.20050817T1714.lth1x4snlsi@roar.cs.berkeley.edu> (raw)
A number of functions that call `read-file-name' utilize the
`default-filename' parameter, or its default. E.g., M-x
diff-backup RET should diff the current file instead of attempting
to diff the current directory. I.e., regular `read-file-name'
returns `(or default-filename buffer-file-name)'. Currently
`ido-read-file-name' always returns default-directory if the user
presses only RET.
I would like ido-read-file-name to heed default-filename. I'm
willing to implement it.
Note that I think ido-find-file behavior shouldn't change,
i.e. ido-find-file RET should still dired the current directory.
(I also used Kevin Rodgers' find-file advice to also change
find-file's behavior thus.)
