This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
the From: line contains a valid email address. After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgment at that address.
Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':
I started emacs with
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -Q
I typed M-x shell RET
At the shell prompt, I typed "cd doc", then I hit the TAB key. The
shell's current directory was my home directory, and that directory
contains a subdirectory named "Documents". I expected the TAB key to
complete the name "Documents", but it just beeped. I then did M-: (setq
completion-ignore-case t) RET, and tried again, but it still just
beeped.
