This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgment at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

In ido-mode, we can change the ido-decorations to make the completion
list appear vertically. However, This is limited for two reasons, both
of which are easy to fix. For one thing, the elements at indices 4 and 5
of ido-decorations are overloaded, and used in two places when they
really should be separated out into two different pairs of
decorations. Specifically on lines 4573/4575, this should use new
elements, at new indices 11 and 12 (for backwards compatibility), which
default to the same values as the existing elements 4 and 5. Then these
"brackets" can be customized separately (one as a newline and one not)
when displaying vertically. And only when element 11 exists should it
use 11 and 12, otherwise it should fall back to 4 and 5 for backwards
compatibility with anyone who has customized ido-decorations themselves
before this change. Finally, the inner-if on line 4563 has to be wrapped
with an (and (not (ido-show-when-sole-exact-match)) ...) with that
variable created as a defcustom above. This will prevent the sole exact
match from being hidden, which in vertical mode is confusing and seems
to indicate that there no longer remains any matches. I would add the
changelog myself but I'm woefully ignorant on how to do so. There is
already most of the work done in a patch on the devel mailing list in a
post by Stefan Monnier.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.

That was 10 years ago, so I'm reaching out to see if this is still
an issue on a modern version of Emacs.  Did you try the new fido-mode,
for example?

If I don't hear back from you within a couple of months, Ill just assume
that this has been fixed and close this bug.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't used Emacs in years. Thanks.

Thank you for getting back to us.

I'm therefore closing this bug report, as it's unlikely that we'll be
making any progress.
