I'm a little surprised by this conclusion. So far, it appeared to me that some of the pcomplete variables had the wrong default values, but I don't recall anything that couldn't be fixed by frobbing some variables. How about giving John a chance to frob the variables to make the behavior more similar to the old completion behavior? kai -- Silence is foo! _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
