view lisp/format-spec.el @ 105601:68686d39c93a

Replace completion-base-size by completion-base-position to fix bugs such as (bug#4699). * simple.el (completion-base-position): New var. (completion-base-size): Mark as obsolete. (choose-completion): Make it work for mouse events as well. Pass the new base-position to choose-completion-string. (choose-completion-guess-base-position): New function, extracted from choose-completion-delete-max-match. (choose-completion-delete-max-match): Use it. Make obsolete. (choose-completion-string): Use the new base-position info. (completion-root-regexp): Delete. (completion-setup-function): Preserve completion-base-position. Eliminate obsolete base-size manipulation. * minibuffer.el (display-completion-list): Don't mess with base-size. (minibuffer-completion-help): Set completion-base-position instead. * mouse.el (mouse-choose-completion): Redefine as a mere alias to choose-completion. * textmodes/bibtex.el (bibtex-complete): * emacs-lisp/crm.el (crm--choose-completion-string): Adjust to new calling convention. * complete.el (partial-completion-mode): Use minibufferp to avoid bumping into incompatible change to choose-completion-string-functions. * ido.el (ido-choose-completion-string): Make its calling convention more permissive. * comint.el (comint-dynamic-list-input-ring-select): Remove obsolete base-size manipulation. (comint-dynamic-list-input-ring): Use dotimes and push. * iswitchb.el (iswitchb-completion-help): Remove dead-code call to fundamental-mode. Use `or'.
