emacsido-mode

emacs ido-mode select and edit completion

using ido for find file completion, is it possible to select and edit the first completion? Eg., if I had this, I'd like to complete with apples, but not to ido-exit-minibuffer so I can add to the end of apples:

From:

Find file: /home/me/{apples | pears | armadillos | ...}

To:

Find file: /home/me/apples

Cheers,
Tim

Solution

  • C-e (edit input string) seems to do what you want.
