Hello!
When I write in *shell* buffer the command to launch an elderly
version of an Emacs application in Mac OS X to pass some arguments to
it, I use file name completion. I have to do it in steps. I start
with <SPC> that GNU Emacs does not complain when I later try file
name completion and write then "/App" <TAB> that it becomes /
Applications/. I add "Aqu" and <TAB>. The path name is now expanded
to "/Applications/AquaEmacs" with a few choices which are shown in a
*Completions* buffer upon next TAB press:
Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.
Possible completions are:
AquaEmacs-2a.app/ AquaEmacs-bundle.app/ AquaEmacs-pre3.app/
AquaEmacs-zuvor.app/ AquaEmacs.app/ AquaEmacs\ 8.0-rc5.app/
I select the last item, i.e. "AquaEmacs\ 8.0-rc5.app/" so that the
command line now shows "/Applications/AquaEmacs\ 8.0-rc5.app/". This
directory has only one member: "Contents". So I hit <TAB> and see: "/
Applications/AquaEmacs 8.0-rc5.app/Contents/". Great! The auxiliary
backslashes are removed from the previously ugly view. This directory
has a few members. To make a choice I hit again <TAB>. In *shell*
buffer nothing happens, a beep sounds, and a *Backtrace* buffer opens:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Opening directory" "no
such file or directory" "/Users/pete/8.0-rc5.app/Contents/")
file-name-completion("" "/Users/pete/8.0-rc5.app/Contents/")
comint-dynamic-complete-as-filename()
shell-dynamic-complete-filename()
run-hook-with-args-until-success(shell-dynamic-complete-filename)
comint-dynamic-complete()
call-interactively(comint-dynamic-complete nil nil)
So it seems that the decision to remove the backslashes wasn't so
clever ...
