I'm not much of an elisp hacker -- my ~/.emacs has stayed basically the same since 1996. Let's say I have a dozen buffers, including foo.c and foo.h. I am in foo.c but I want to jump to foo.h. So I do C-x C-b foo TAB But this doesn't complete to foo.h, because foo.c is also an alternative -- even though that's the buffer I'm explicitly trying to switch *from*. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn O o .
