Documentation

List of regexps that should restrict possible completions.

The basic completion functions only consider a completion acceptable if it matches all regular expressions in this list, with case-fold-search bound to the value of completion-ignore-case. See Info node (elisp)Basic Completion, for a description of these functions.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 19.23.
