In GNU Emacs 18.54.2 of Sat Feb 10 1990 on icule (usg-unix-v) Using the Info mode command `f' (Info-follow-reference), replying a mere RET to the `Follow reference named:' prompt, when there are several references in the current node, Emacs does select one for me instead of displaying all the possible choices. I think the null pattern is ambiguous when there is more than one reference, and the possible completions are simply the list of all references in this case. Emacs should probably pop a window to help select the wanted reference. -- Franc,ois Pinard ``Vivement GNU!'' pinard@iro.umontreal.ca (514) 588-4656 cp 886 L'Epiphanie (Qc) J0K 1J0 ...!uunet!iros1!pinard
