Hi Krishna,
Have you tried completing when there is more than one choice
available?
I just now opened a chell buffer (M-x shell) from my scratch
buffer. So I was at the shell prompt in my ~/ directory.
I typed cd new and pressed TAB. Emacspeak started reading out the
Completion List buffer which looked like this
Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.
Possible completions are:
new-packages/ new.vm
new.vm~ new/
newton/
I did C-x-o to get to this buffer and pressed M-f repetedly to move
forward by word till I reached newton/ then pressed RET, this brought
me back to the shell buffer and the point was at the end of the
completed line
$ cd newton. Pressing RET I went to the directory ~/newton/
I don't see the problem. But then I have character echo `on'
rather than `off' but I doubt that makes a difference.
You should assume that Emacs will do the completion correctly and if
you are paraanoid after pressing TAB press M-b to hear the last word.
HTH.
Cheers.
Kalyan
