+  An alternative to Icomplete mode is Fido mode.  This is very similar
+to Icomplete mode, but retains some functionality from a popular
+extension called Ido mode (in fact the name is derived from ``Fake
+Ido'').  Among other things, in Fido mode, @kbd{C-s} and @kbd{C-r} are
+also used to rotate the completions list, @kbd{C-k} can be used to
+delete files and kill buffers in-list.  Another noteworthy aspect is
+that @code{flex} is used as the default completion style
+(@pxref{Completion Styles}).
+
+  To enable Fido mode, type @kbd{M-x fido-mode}, or customize
+the variable @code{fido-mode} to @code{t} (@pxref{Easy
+Customization}).

+*** A new minor mode based on Icomplete, Fido mode, is made available.
+The point of this mode, named after "Fake Ido", is to recover much of
+the functionality that still separated the popular ido-mode from
+Icomplete, while still cooperating fully with all of Emacs's
+completion facilities.
