Any suggestions on how to disable completion-at-point in Emacs shell (see below)?
I've looked in the GNU docs on the relevant hook (which is oddly named) - completion-at-point-functions - but given that the hook's value is simply a list of available functions, it's not clear to me how I can use it as a toggle.
The goal is to be able to have my TAB
key back when using the Emacs shell. I'd also be okay with turning off completion-at-point-functions
globally (since I'm an ido
junkie) but I'm not sure how to do that for global minor modes.
As reference, this is the window I'm referring to:
Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.
Possible completions are:
CLUTTER_IM_MODULE DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS DEFAULTS_PATH
pcomplete
by default,completion-at-point
is a fallback (callM-x find-function RET eshell-pcomplete
to see it). Second, what do you mean when you say you want your “tab key back”? Do you want it to insert a tab character “\t”? – Malabarba Oct 23 '14 at 12:08completion-at-point
is the default in eshell... Yes, that's correct, I'd like to be able to insert a tab character "\t" using the <TAB> key. – iceman Oct 23 '14 at 15:12
