Thanks. These are useful, but as you suspected they address the entry problem rather than display. I currently use the environment variable substitution which works nicely with ido.el (it does expansion so that completion is available). `cygwin-mount.el' interferes with the `directory-abbrev-alist' solution because it grabs the abbreviation and expands it relative to the Cygwin root directory before the abbreviation is expanded. Maybe if this can be corrected, I can use the `directory-abbrev-alist' solution because it seems to do much of what I want. > There is also a recipe for a host indication in the mode line. > This is useful and I've modified it for my use. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
