Subject: Opening unknown file in ido mode causes loooong search
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 10:51:46 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ecb6d388-ccd6-44c3-9ce0-918237e09f05@v37g2000prg.googlegroups.com> (raw)


I've just updated to 23.1.50.  I have "ido-mode" turned on.  Ido mode
is great most of the time.  I can do C-x C-f to open a file, and if
the file doesn't exist in the current dir, ido will find it in my
history.  Really cool

But, sometimes when I try to open a file that I've somehow misspelled,
I get "Searching for <filename>" in the minibuffer and emacs freezes.
After about 2-3 mins (due to a timeout value somewhere I suppose),
emacs unfreezes and I can continue.

Anyone know how to avoid this, or somehow set the timeout to a
reasonable value?

Tks,
-T
