Message-ID: <E1GkBEN-00024z-QE@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87zmavulet.fsf@gmx.at> (message from Markus Triska on Mon, 13 Nov 2006 21:44:10 +0100)
The complaint was:
I expected it to change "foo" to "Foo", because all possible
completions begin with "Foo". That's what it does if you don't enable
partial-completion-mode. But with partial-completion-mode enabled, it
stays "foo" and Emacs displays the list of possible completions.
Michael Ernst wrote the patch which implemented this behavior.
Michael, why is it desirable for partial-completion mode to handle
this case differently from ordinary completion?
