Really? I always thought that the leading slash in "/media" causes
Emacs to disregard the "~/" part, and interpret the rest as relative
to "/", the filesystem root? When I type '/' on my system, Emacs
gives the preceding "~/" part a shadow-y color (and on a TTY places it
in {..}), to show that it is being ignored.
How come Richard gets ~//media instead? he should get /media, without
the leading "~/". What am I missing?
