Something like in zsh (and maybe bash): first time display the list of possible completions, then upon successive "tab" cycle through the completions. For instance, here is when I'm in the bbdb folder in zsh in a terminal: ~/src/bbdb(master ✔) I hit "cd tab", I get ~/src/bbdb(master ✔) cd autom4te.cache/ doc/ lisp/ tex/ I hit "tab" again, I get ~/src/bbdb(master ✔) cd autom4te.cache/ autom4te.cache/ doc/ lisp/ tex/ I hit "tab" again, I get ~/src/bbdb(master ✔) cd doc/ autom4te.cache/ doc/ lisp/ tex/ > For me, the completions buffer says at the top the usual two lines > of any completions buffer > > Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it. > In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point. > > When I follow this recipe I get what I want (and what was promised). > What do you get? Yes, this works. I'm trying to choose a completion without using the mouse nor moving the point to the window. As I said earlier, I'm a bit of an emacs novice, so I did not know this was an emacs-provided feature.
