No. A new buffer comes up, but not with the contents of the menu (as I = would expect), but with this: --- Press PageUp key to reach this buffer from the minibuffer. Alternatively, you can use Up/Down keys (or your History keys) to change the item in the minibuffer, and press RET when you are done, or press = the marked letters to pick up your choice. Type C-g or ESC ESC ESC to = cancel. In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point. There are no possible completions of what you have typed.=20 --- > You're not supposed to edit the prompt the way you're trying to, just > type the single letter mnemonic of the desired item which should be > clear from the menu (if it is visible).
