Re: Tramp completion doesn't work like ange-ftp

[Matthew Donaldson]

Hi Michael,

The trace is enclosed.  Not sure if you wanted me to trace all of this, but 
what I did was basically this:

C-x C-f /address@hidden:/ <TAB>
(asked for password)
Used filename completion to complete public_html
Opened index.php3
Then I did C-x C-f ~/.login
Then I tried this:

C-x C-f /mc <TAB>

which in ange-ftp would have found my connection to 
/address@hidden:/ and completed it to that.

Let me know if you just wanted the trace for that last bit, and I can make a 
trace with just that in it.  This trace is pretty large!

Cheers

            -Matthew
