I noticed that it complained that "iswitchb" is obsolete, so I switched to = "ido", which is apparently recommended to replace it. When I started using it, I immediately noticed a blocking problem with it. = I map "/cygdrive" to "/c" in /etc/fstab. In Emacs, with ido, when I type = "/c/", it gives me the following completion choices: "{etc/ | proc/ | cygdr= ive/}". I don't know what I'm supposed to do now. If I just continue typi= ng the path I need, it replaces "/c/" with "/etc/", which isn't what I want= . It doesn't appear that I can get to "/c/" with ido.
