Subject: bug#73739: read-buffer-completion-ignore-case needs third possibility
Date: Fri, 11 Oct 2024 04:49:20 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87plo7n0of.3.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
read-buffer-completion-ignore-case is a variable defined in ‘C source code’.
Its value is t
Original value was nil
Non-nil means completion ignores case when reading a buffer name.
OK, but there should be a third mode, different than just non-nil, that
says that if the user has especially typed a capital letter (taken the
trouble to hold down the SHIFT keyboard key) then that should be
case sensitive. Else we see:
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.
2 possible completions: `
Makefile
maps.html
-UUU:%*- F1 *Completions* All L1 (Completion List) -
Switch to buffer (default maps.html): Ma<TAB>
