Description Henrique Martins 2009-12-23 18:27:41 UTC

Description of problem:
file name completion in shell-mode doesn't find files larger than 2GB

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xemacs-21.5.29-9.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start plain xemacs with "xemacs -nw -vanilla"
2. type M-x shell
3. cd to directory with "largefile" where "largefile" is larger than 2GB
4. issue ls and check that largefile is indeed in that directory
5. type ls la<TAB> and XEmacs claims "No completions of la"
  
Actual results:
No file name completion

Expected results:
File name completion

Are you on a 32-bit system?  You set "Platform" as "All", which I don't believe is correct.  I did this on my 64-bit system:

$ cd /tmp
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=sparse-file bs=1 count=1 seek=3G

Then I followed your recipe above, and XEmacs did complete on "sp<TAB>".  If you are, in fact, on a 32-bit system, then I believe you are a victim of the small size of most-positive-fixnum.  In short, this isn't a bug, it's a feature.

Comment 2 Henrique Martins 2009-12-23 19:05:25 UTC

I'm on a 32-bit system, yes, and why is this a fixture as shell completion works fine outside of XEmacs?
