Options to circumvent bugs are a bad idea, in general (with exceptions, of course, like everything, such as when the bug is particularly hard to fix, or occurs in some code we can't control). >>> I believe there should be a variable to customize this behavior >>> (say, suggest-shorter-command-limit; defaulting to 5, but with nil >>> as an option to disable such suggestions altogether.) As a >>> workaround, I=E2=80=99ve simply disabled it entirely (see the patch MIM= Ed.) >> I don't think that's needed. > The mere fact that bug#19152 was filed suggests otherwise. An option to turn the feature off is fine. An option to choose the number of chars we have to gain is not. Stefan
