Symptoms: Minibuffer completion misbehaves when cursor is over an email address and ffap and partial-completion-mode are used.
Here's a recipe: 1. start emacs -Q --no-site-file 2. M-x ffap-bindings 3. M-x partial-completion-mode 4. in scratch buffer write an email address e.g. "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" 5. with cursor somewhere over this address, enter C-x C-f to load a file 6. in minibuffer wipe out the default (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]), e.q. C-a C-k 7. enter the first character of an existing file in home directory (e.g. x.sh) and then press SPC e.g. "~/x"<SPC> This will be completed to "x.~/x" In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.30 (sparc-sun-solaris2.8, Motif Version 2.1.0) of 2005-07-12 on sfsws4 X server distributor `Sun Microsystems, Inc.', version 11.0.6410 configured using `configure '--with-gcc' '--prefix=/vol/freeware/SunOS-5.8/emacs/cvs' '--sharedstatedir=/vol/freeware/SunOS-5.8/emacs/cvs/share' '--with-x-toolkit=motif' '--x-includes=/usr/openwin/include:/usr/local/gnu/include:/opt/exp/gnu/include:/opt/exp/include:/opt/exp/lib/xpm/include' '--x-libraries=/usr/openwin/lib:/usr/local/gnu/lib:/opt/exp/gnu/lib:/opt/exp/lib:/opt/exp/lib/xpm/lib' '--with-pop' 'CC=gcc'' Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: C locale-coding-system: nil default-enable-multibyte-characters: t Major mode: Lisp Interaction Minor modes in effect: partial-completion-mode: t tool-bar-mode: t mouse-wheel-mode: t auto-compression-mode: t menu-bar-mode: t blink-cursor-mode: t unify-8859-on-encoding-mode: t utf-translate-cjk-mode: t line-number-mode: t transient-mark-mode: identity next-error-follow-minor-mode: Fol Recent input: <help-echo> ~ / x SPC <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> C-g C-a C-k M r X @ s o m e . p l a c e <left> <left> C-x C-f C-a C-k ~ / y SPC <backspace> x SPC <help-echo> <down-mouse-1> <mouse-movement> <mouse-movement> <drag-mouse-1> <down-mouse-1> <mouse-1> <return> <down-mouse-2> <mouse-2> <return> <help-echo> <down-mouse-1> <mouse-1> C-g <help-echo> <down-mouse-1> <mouse-1> C-x C-f <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> <backspace> x <backspace> t SPC C-g <help-echo> <help-echo> <help-echo> <menu-bar> <help-menu> <report-emacs-b ug> Recent messages: For information about the GNU Project and its goals, type C-h C-p.
