Description Jonathan Kamens 2008-04-23 17:45:31 UTC

With emacs-23.0.60-2.fc9.i386, when I partially type a directory (e.g., "~/add" 
when the directory "~/addresses" exists) and hit tab, it doesn't complete.

It's trying to complete but none of the completion functions are doing anything.

This, as you might imagine, is exceedingly irritating.

Is this occurring for actions like C-x C-f? I cannot reproduce this with
emacs-23.0.60-2.fc9.x86_64. I have tried both the windowed version as well as in
the terminal window (executed as "emacs -nw").

Comment 3 Jonathan Kamens 2008-04-23 19:28:27 UTC

This has nothing to do with C-x C-f.  That's minibuffer completion, which is 
handled within (interactive).  As I explained in the bug, I'm talking about 
completion IN A COMINT SHELL BUFFER.
