chemacs is not context aware

verajosemanuel opened this issue · comments

when using chemacs you can't use it to open a file the usual way (autocomplete file names in bash)

I only have 4 files in scripts folder. I call emacs with no profile and press tab to autocomplete with folder filenames.


$ pwd
/home/joe/Documents/scripts

$ emacs 
do you wish to see all 5062 possibilities (1688 lines)?

Seems that chemacs is not context aware

Hmm, this is likely a bash thing, not an emacs thing or chemacs thing.
