Subject: bug#58835: 28.1; try-complete-file-name-partially modifies text before point
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2022 08:35:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <HE1PR0502MB3004993E1599B6CC6DE81EBBB4339@HE1PR0502MB3004.eurprd05.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

When hippie-expand uses try-complete-file-name-partially on a partial
path which uses platform standard directory separators, then directory
separators are replaced with posix directory separators throughout the
entire path.

Functions that "expand" or "complete" should not change text before
point.

For example, when expanding
    c:\Documents
it becomes
    c:/Documents and settings/

Expected behaviour: Nothing changed before point, expand to:
    c:\Documents and settings/

Desired behaviour is to respect platform conventions and produce
    c:\Documents and settings\
but I realise that would be too much to ask.
