* Problem with file completion with Emacs 24.1 on Windows @ 2012-05-03 19:00 Tima 2012-05-04 6:10 ` Eli Zaretskii 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Tima @ 2012-05-03 19:00 UTC (permalink / raw) To: help-gnu-emacs Hi, I have installed Emacs 24 on Windows 7 box from http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-20120430-r108062-bin-i386.zip. The version shows "GNU Emacs 24.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2012-04-30 on MARVIN". Sometimes, the file completion with C-x C-f <type partial name> TAB does not work. The message buffer says Making completion list... [2 times] Assertion failed: (string-prefix-p prefix completion) Typing more characters helps, but it may stuck again at the next expansion. Please help. Thank you, --Tima ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I hope they will be fixed soon. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
