Maybe VM should by default balk at first, at requests to visit
empty folders.
That shouldn't be in VM at all. I grabbed a suggestion off the net
which causes Emacs to prompt me to confirm when it tries to visit a
non-existant file. With that, I have to confirm twice with the "s"
command in vm to save to a non-existant file, which is a pain.
(Unfortunately, I can't remember or find what I did to enable this
behavior. I use monkey-mode, but that shouldn't be important, because
the behavior shows up with "s" in vm. When I try to visit a
non-existant file, it says:
File: /FOO [no completions, confirm]
Hitting ^M again is confirmation. Can anyone recognize this message
and tell me how I did it? 8-)
