Nothing is wrong, start typing commands say dired-, after exactly two characters typed (i.e "di") you will see completion. choose a command in list and run it with RET, C-z to describe it. When you have run command it is added in extended-command-history. Next time you run anything-M-x, you will see your command appearing in a buffer with header "Emacs commands history". NOTE: There is no TAB menu in this command as it use anything-comp-read, an "anything" completing-read that have a sole action like completing-read (Two indeed with the possibility of a persistent action i.e C-z). -- Thierry Volpiatto Get my Gnupg key: gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 59F29997
