Subject: `read-file-name' with history?
Date: Tue, 16 Nov 2010 12:54:41 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a9d2c809-bf75-4beb-b2d7-74f50d7c663a@s4g2000yql.googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hello,

unlike `read-string', `read-file-name' lacks an history parameter.  Is
there a way to achieve such behavior?

Since `read-string' is a built-in function in C source code, I can't
examine it (well, I could examine the C sources, but I think it would
be a little difficult).

Any help?  Thanks.
