bobchan> Dear Bug Team!
bobchan> Try this experiment:
bobchan> echo "This is from /tmp" > /tmp/~somefile
bobchan> echo "This is from ~/" > ~/~somefile
bobchan> In (X)Emacs:
bobchan> C-x C-f /tmp/<C-q>~somefile
bobchan> Output:
bobchan> "This is from ~/"
bobchan> Now, why is that?
Hi bobchan, what you are experiencing is electricity.
See
http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/21.5/html/xemacs_9.html#SEC61
It is controlled by variable
minibuffer-electric-file-name-behavior
which see.
Best regards,
Adrian
