Subject: bug#7779: Miserable widget completion for type 'directory on w32
Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2011 22:00:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTinGGTbp4ub5jchzDDew_uFEY_oPxhvGocjo-_2G@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Suppose you have a defcustom with a ":type 'directory". Then you are
supposed to be able to use widget-complete to make it easier to fill
in this list. There are (at least) two problems with this on w32:

- The completion is case sensitive. However the file system is case
insensitive on w32.

- widget-complete is bound to M-TAB. This is by default bound to
Alt-Tab which is not available to applications on w32.
