That first TAB completes to "foo/", though, which is what you'd expect. (At least in 25.1 and up; I don't have 24.4 here.) > Please change the tab completion in shell mode so that directories are > completed to the trailing slash, as foo/, but the special '.' and '..' > subdirectories are not considered for further completion. In bug#16577, we discussed the possibility of adding more variables to allow excluding files more easily. If we had that, then adding "." and ".." to that would probably be pretty popular. (So I'm merging this report with that report, because fixing it would also fix this one.) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no

(which is the initial substring of 'foo/.' and 'foo/..'). There are not many cases when you really want to include the trailing /. on a directory name. Usually just giving the directory is sufficient, and giving it with a trailing slash is okay. Emacs could complete the filename to include the trailing slash, but should not go further to add the '.' character when the directory is empty. In particular, 'rmdir foo/.' is an error; see GNU coreutils bug #20835. Please change the tab completion in shell mode so that directories are completed to the trailing slash, as foo/, but the special '.' and '..' subdirectories are not considered for further completion.
