I see your point, although this is an odd corner case. I am still in favour of changing the argument to t so one gets implicit completion of incomplete filenames. E.g. j in RET would jump to my init.el if I am direding my .emacs.d. Maybe completing-read could be used here, completing to all filenames in the dired buffer? That's seems like a useful idea considering virtual-dired and find-dired. Christopher
