Re: [Bug: 21.4.13] Tab completion in M-x shell on Windows fails if directory contains spaces

Ed> Yup. I've always wondered why it doesn't look at the shell Ed> prompt instead (at least if the prompt is set to include the Ed> current directory), but anyway... Patches welcome. Make sure it supports command.com, cmd.exe, 4dos, 4nt, POSIX sh, Bourne-again shell, ksh, csh, tcsh with i81n, zsh, scsh, .... If you really want this to work, you need to do a lot of icky hacking. But guess what? Every single one of those accepts `cd' to change working directory. Some of them support the pushd/popd extension. A better idea would be to enhance eshell to workalike your favorite shell. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
