Source Code

;; Defined in /usr/src/emacs/lisp/term.el.gz
;;; Filename/command/history completion in a buffer
;; ===========================================================================
;; Useful completion functions, courtesy of the Ergo group.

;; Six commands:
;; term-dynamic-complete		Complete or expand command, filename,
;;					history at point.
;; term-dynamic-complete-filename	Complete filename at point.
;; term-dynamic-list-filename-completions List completions in help buffer.
;; term-replace-by-expanded-filename	Expand and complete filename at point;
;;					replace with expanded/completed name.

;; These are not installed in the term-mode keymap.  But they are
;; available for people who want them.  Shell-mode installs them:
;; (keymap-set shell-mode-map "TAB" 'term-dynamic-complete)
;; (keymap-set shell-mode-map "M-?"
;;             'term-dynamic-list-filename-completions)))
;;
;; Commands like this are fine things to put in load hooks if you
;; want them present in specific modes.
