Subject: Following shortcuts when using tab completion with emacs on windows.
Date: Sat, 30 Jan 2010 00:37:43 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3dbf66ef-1b27-41be-89ad-6174005ca8b6@b36g2000pri.googlegroups.com> (raw)
I would like to find a way to follow windows shortcuts (*.lnk) files
when using tab completion.
The package "w32-symlinks" allows emacs to follow windows shortcuts.
Does any one know how to tie this into the tab completion so that
links will be followed?
The exact behavior that I would like is that when I type C-x C-f to
open a file, then type in the name of a shortcut and press <TAB>, I
would be taken to the linked directory and be able to choose a file.
Basically to mimic symbolic links on POSIX. Any link files that I do
encounter will have been created by cygwin.
I am using a windows installation of emacs 23.1.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Novimir Pablant
