Hi,
with these settings:
,----
| (add-hook 'minibuffer-setup-hook
| (lambda () (add-hook 'post-command-hook
| 'minibuffer-completion-help nil t)))
`----
If you do:
C-x C-f ==> /su:
You have not the time to type the second ":" and tramp fail.
(same for ssh/ftp)
This could be fixed by modifying tramp-file-name-regexp like this:
(tramp-file-name-regexp "\\`/\\([^[/:]+\\|[^/]+]\\):.*:")
This is what does anything-find-files-get-candidates in anything-config.el

This would be wrong. "/hostname:/path" is a valid remote file name, which
would not be catched by your regexp.
(For the records, I also dislike Tramp's syntactic ambiguity. But this is
history, I guess we cannot change it anymore.)
In order to fix this problem, one could tweak `minibuffer-completion-predicate'
in `minibuffer-completion-help', which is `file-exists-p' in the given
case.
Best regards, Michael.

While I do get a Tramp failure, indeed, this does not prevent me from
typing the second :. I think the problem is more that the Tramp error
is very loud and makes you think it's the end of the world, whereas in
reality Emacs is still there waiting for you keep on typing.

Everything can be changed.

I think we somehow need to make the error a bit more quiet.
Most of it needs to be done on Tramp's side, but maybe we can help it by
having the completion code warn Tramp that this is only used
for completion. Or maybe the completion code can catch the error and
just display it calmly.
I wonder, tho: why is Tramp so loud? Shouldn't it just call `signal'
with appropriate parameters to indicate an error, without popping up
any window?

I didn't know and never use /hostname:, i always prefix it with method
(e.g ssh).
So i end up to this problem in anything by systematically translating
path like /su:: /sudo:: or /hostname: by:
/su:hostname:
/sudo:hostname:
/ssh:hostname:
To achieve that i use (in a let) to avoid connecting before the second
":":
(tramp-file-name-regexp "\\`/\\([^[/:]+\\|[^/]+]\\):.*:?")
And i translate the matched string in the path with:
,----
| (defun anything-create-tramp-name (fname)
| "Build filename for `anything-pattern' \
| like /su::, /sudo:: or /hostname:."
| (apply #'tramp-make-tramp-file-name
| (loop
| with v = (tramp-dissect-file-name fname)
| for i across v collect i)))

And/Or always translate like above to avoid as much as possible errors.

Thanks for reminding me! We have had the same problem in ido.el (and
icycles.el, IIRC), and I have introduced `tramp-completion-mode' exactly
for this purpose.
The appended patch shall fix it; Thierry, could you, please, test? You
need a `make bootstrap', because minibuffer.el is dumped into the binary.

When you have "/su::", how do you know what "hostname" ought to be? It
isn't always "localhost"; a user can configure any other hostname.

It is not localhost for me, i set it differently.
But it seem tramp is aware of that and use what is set in my
/etc/hosts.
I think the env variables are HOSTNAME and DNSDOMAIN, but it have maybe
changed in my system (gentoo), don't remember.

Just tested your patch.
Yes it work fine. :-)
It propose similar completion on /su: than `anything-create-tramp-name'.

That's going very much along the lines of

so it'd be OK. Two issues, tho:
1- first, I'd like to know why Tramp doesn't just signal an error,
rather than mess with windows and stuff.
2- if we have to go this route it'll have to use a name that's not
specific to tramp. Maybe `completion-only' or something like that.

As I said, Tramp's syntax is ambigous. It tries to expand "/sudo:",
which is a valid remote file name. Due to the syntax ambiguity, Tramp
does not understand, that "sudo" is not a hostname in this case, and it
fails with an error. What you see is the usual Tramp behaviour in case
of an error, where it tries to give you some more information in case a
connection does not work.
The amount of information can be reduced by lowering `tramp-verbose'.

D'accord. I had always a bad feeling spreading Tramp internal names to
the outside; when we have introduced that variable back in 2005 and
2007, Emacs was in a kind of feature freeze (IIRC), so I didn't ask for
such a variable.
`completion-*' symbols are spread over several *.el files. Where shall
`completion-only' belong to? minibuffer.el?

And the question above is really talking about "signal an error"
(ie.. call just `signal' or `error') vs "the usual Tramp behaviour in
case of an error, where it tries to give you some more information in
case a connection does not work". This "usual Tramp behavior" is quite
problematic since it can't be silenced in the usual condition-case way.
> The amount of information can be reduced by lowering `tramp-verbose'.
Maybe the verbosity should be reduced by default. Or maybe it should be
provided differently: we could make it so that the top-level exception
handler (the one that outputs the message in the minibuffer if an error
is not otherwise caught) can be programmed, so Tramp could call `signal'
in the normal way and do the messy window-pop-up in the top-level
exception handler instead (so it doesn't do it if the error gets
caught).
That could save us from a `completion-only' kind of hack.

AFAIK they're in completion.el (a historical accident), simple.el (a
historical accident since most of the completion code was in C back
then), and minibuffer.el (which I couldn't call completion.el because
of the previous historical accient).

Yes.

This would be an option, yes. Also for other use cases than this reported one.
> That could save us from a `completion-only' kind of hack.
No. It is not only about catching errors. If, for example, your default
method is "ftp", expanding "/sudo:" would not result in an error, but in
the password request for "albinus@sudo" (in my case). This must be
suppressed as well, so we still need this flag to tell Tramp not to
expand an incomplete filename.

The patch you sent to me against minibuffer.el was working fine.
However i tried to complete with Emacs build of today
(<2010-04-13 Mar.>)
and even if it complete, i still have the error buffer as soon as i
enter the first ":" (e.g /su::).
With my anything file completion i have no error but i have now to
require tramp.

Actually, now that I think about it, I think it's more general
than that. It's basically the idea that the current execution is
non-essential (e.g. part of some background computation, or some
not-necessarily-expected part of a command like loading a desktop(.el)).
So maybe the variable should be in simple.el and named `non-essential'.

Could you, please, add this variable to simple.el, with a proper
docstring? I tend to fail with understable descriptions ...
I will apply the additional changes in minibuffer.el, ido.el and
tramp.el afterwards.

I've just added it.
*BUT* I also realized that your suggested patch:
***************
*** 1028,1034 ****
"Display a list of possible completions of the current minibuffer contents."
(interactive)
(message "Making completion list...")
! (let* ((start (field-beginning))
(string (field-string))
(completions (completion-all-completions
string
--- 1028,1035 ----
"Display a list of possible completions of the current minibuffer contents."
(interactive)
(message "Making completion list...")
! (let* ((non-essential t)
! (start (field-beginning))
(string (field-string))
(completions (completion-all-completions
string
is not OK: when I hit ? (or TAB) in the minibuffer, I really do want
Tramp to give me the possible completions, even if that requires my
entering a password.
So, it should be added to ido/icomplete and to the original code:
(add-hook 'minibuffer-setup-hook
(lambda ()
(let ((non-essential t))
(add-hook 'post-command-hook
'minibuffer-completion-help nil t))))
but not to the minibuffer-completion-help itself.

But this still works. As soon as Tramp detects, that the file name is a
"syntactical complete" one, it lets you complete the remote file name
path. That means "/string:?" would be completed only in case "string" is
not a method name. "/string::?" or "/string:/?" or "/string:.?" will
always be completed with path names, because due to the syntax it is
clear that "string" must be a host name.
I have committed the changes; according to my tests it works fine.

Hmmm... so Tramp does not interpret `non-essential' in the same way as
I do (and the way I documented in the docstring). E.g. when using
icomplete (which should set non-essential for the same reason as ido,
IIUC), I wouldn't want Tramp to try to connect to the host just because
I've started typing "/ssh:host:something".

It doesn't. It starts connecting the host when you type
"/ssh:host:something?" or "/ssh:host:something <TAB>".
Btw, I'm not sure whether ido.el needs `non-essential. I've just
replaced `tramp-completion-mode' there, without too much testing whether
it could be rearranged.

I just tried:
% emacs -Q
M-x ido-mode RET
C-x C-f /ssh:turlutu:
and when I hit the last : Tramp gave me an error which disrupted my
window arrangement and made it painful to fix the spelling of the host
name. And I did not hit any TAB, or question mark.
Currently icomplete-mode doesn't set non-essential, so it gets an error
even earlier, but even if it were to set non-essential, it'll get the
exact same problem.
Of course, maybe your opinion is that it's not a problem.
Anyway, here's a more serious problem:
M-x icomplete-mode RET C-x C-f /pas
and it immediately tries to connect to my machine `pastel'. The lack of
`non-essential' in icomplete.el does not excuse this. Can you explain
why Tramp tries to connect to a machine whose name I haven't even fully
typed yet?

Of course, this is an error. I've just committed a patch which makes
Tramp less noisy in this case; tested with your ido example above.

Sorry, I cannot reproduce the problem with "emacs -Q". At this point,
Tramp shall not be loaded even. Could you, please, show the backtrace?

Indeed, I was using an icomplete.el with slightly changed default
settings, sorry. Here is the complete tested recipe:
% emacs -Q
C-x C-f /su: C-g
M-: (setq icomplete-with-completion-tables '(read-file-name-internal))
M-x icomplete-mode
C-x C-f /
and that's enough to trigger popping up a "*tramp/scp fcp*" window
telling me "Process *tramp/scp fcp* exited abnormally with code 255"

Should be solved now with my latest commit. However, there is a
remaining problem, `partial-completion' seems to have a bug:
# emacs -Q
M-: (setq completion-styles '(partial-completion))
C-x C-f /sudo:: TAB => /sudo:sudo:
For all other completion styles, this bug does not occur. Maybe an
additional style would be useful, because "/sudo:: TAB" does not provide
further choices, until the connection has been established. This might
require special handling.

I'm closing this bug; the originally reported problem seems to be
fixed. The remaining problem is handled now by Bug#10085, nobody has
cared about it when mentioned here.
