Subject: bug#1800: 23.0.60; Changed meaning of * in buffer name completion
Date: Wed, 07 Jan 2009 15:09:09 -0500 [thread overview]

Here's another option: only treat * as a wildcard if it doesn't match
anything existing. I.e. if you have buffers that start with "*", then
"*g" will not treat the * as a wildcard. To force the use of
a wildcard, we could let the user type "**g".
That too would more or less solve the problem.
