23.0.60; Changed meaning of * in buffer name completion |
|
Date: |
Tue, 06 Jan 2009 07:31:14 -0500 |
The change to treat * as a wildcard is often a pain in the neck.
Such changes should not be made without polling the users first.
Please undo this change, poll the users, and redo the change
if they generally want it.

This has been fixed for a while, so I'm closing this bug.
