Subject: bug#57423: Completions Buffer requiring window switching or mouse activity
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2022 03:18:58 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <NAMil2M--3-7@tutanota.com> (raw)
Using "M-x COMMAND TAB" to display minibuffer commands, one gets a
temporary Completions Buffer that says
Click on a completion to select it
Consequently, one cannot complete or go through the possibilities in the minibuffer,
but am being forced to either switch to it with "C-x o" a couple of times, or having
to use the mouse.
An effective way that improves the frequent minibuffer activity (e.g. icomplete lets user
select a completion without having to smitch windows), emacs can automatically switch
to the completions buffer so one can get to a possible selection using the arrow keys.
