I have just run into a file completion problem in Epoch 4.0.1, although the
same problem manifests itself in Emacs 18.52.7.

I have recently started using a program which creates, for its own use,
lock/log files called ".-etc-motd-" and ".-export-local-share-etc-motd-"
in my home directory.

The bug appears when I tried to visit a "dot" file in my home directory,
though I couldn't remember its precise name.

I typed C-x C-f, and was prompted for the "Find file:" with a default of
"~/".  When I added a "." to this and pressed SPC for completions, Emacs
behaved as if these two were the only "dot" files in my home directory,
when in fact there were many others.  In particular, it first completed
as far as "~/.-", when I pressed SPC again it gave "~/.-e", and when I
pressed SPC a third time, it gave a completion list of just these two
files. 

If more of the file name is given as a "seed" for the completion, all is
well, and all the relevant files become visible.

I'm afraid I don't have time to look into this problem now, but I notice
that these two files come, alphabetically, between "." and "..": could some
mechanisms for suppressing ".." be fouling up?

Please keep up the great work.  Emacs is excellent: roll on 19, and an end
to Epoch/Lucid/GNU fragmentation!
