hi there
i use emacs 21.3 on win2000 and have assosiated a bash with the comint/shell
functionality. this works fine, but the cpmletion via TAB (command
`comint-dynamic-complete') doesn't recognize paths with spaces correctly:
the first compeltion with a spaces works, e.g.:
C:/Prog =tab=> C:/Program Files/
the second one doesn't:, eg.:
C:/Program Files/Moz =tab=> error: No completions of Files/Moz
so it doesn't pick up the part before the space,in order to expand to
C:/Program Files/Mozilla. i tried it with double quotes to the beginning of
the path, like
"C:/Program Files/Moz =tab=> ...
but it doesn't work either. :-(
how can i tweak the comint-shell-package to make this work?
thanks, leo
