Klaus> Sure, this is not against the documentation of Klaus> `this-command' but now I'm wondering how can i get the name Klaus> "XXX" in the `pre-command-hook' direct before XXX runs? Klaus> Seems that `this-command' is not what i need ;-) Try `last-command'. However, it's possible that what should really happen is that `minibuffer-complete-and-exit' should be fixed to setq this-command last-command. So make sure you comment this work-around well.
