Re: [OctDev] Patch: Improved filename/symbol completing

Kristian,

I think you are posting to the wrong list:
address@hidden is for discussing development and use of octave-forge packages
as your patch touches liboctave which is part of octave itself I think
address@hidden is more appropriate

This very simple patch makes sure that only files and no matlab
symbols shows up when completing a "cd" och "ls" command. It also
makes sure no files are displayed when completing the first command on
the line. It's still not possible to complete a path-three such as "cd
projects/octave/stacking", only files/folders in the current directory
are showned in the completion list (just like before I touched the
code).

The intelligence of "is_completing_dirfns" needs serious enhancement
but at least it's a start.

Please leave feedback. Which kind of completion behavior do you prefer?
