Subject: Re: result of completing-read contradicting require-match
Date: Sun, 3 Jul 2022 00:58:30 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YsC/hgHye1QHD28M@protected.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAP_d_8W6c33bq==fhOUFmRYRJ4vc9gXU_hfZe8YoZBKZRdLwfQ@mail.gmail.com>

* Yuri Khan <yuri.v.khan@gmail.com> [2022-07-02 23:39]:
> I meant a closure over the list of valid strings, something like this:

(let* ((choices '("name" "name-mode"))
       (is-valid (lambda (s) (member s choices)))
       (choice (completing-read "Type: " choices nil is-valid)))
  choice) ⇒ results with ""

So it did not work in my development version of Emacs. 

> I took the liberty to give variables sane names.
> I did not test this as my currently installed Emacs does not accept
> functions as the REQUIRE-MATCH argument. (Or, rather, it does but
> treats them as the “anything else” case.)
