(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately have not received
any responses yet.)
I'm unable to reproduce this bug in Emacs 27. I installed the
auto-complete package, so I have
~/.emacs.d/elpa/auto-complete-1.4/dict/
If I put point within the quotes here:
(add-to-list 'ac-dictionary-directories
"~/.emacs.d/elpa/auto-complete-1.4/dict")
and say `M-x ido-find-file', I just get the normal ido prompt (starting
from the current directory).
Are you still seeing this problem?
