To automatically have the initial value be preselected in the minibuffer, use `preselect-start' or `preselect-end' as the value of `icicle-init-value-flag', depending on where you want the cursor to be. I use `insert' as the value, because I don't want the initial input preselected. I generally edit it only slightly - I don't want to replace it entirely. > Do you know if I can stop f5 being bound by icicles by normal > customization? (define-key icicle-mode-map [f5] 'whatever-you-want) Put that on `icicle-mode-hook' if you want. Or, if you also do not want other top-level commands rebound by Icicles, customize option `icicle-bind-top-level-commands-flag' to nil. HTH
