I use ido-mode also and was wondering how to do this. It seems to not search through sub-directories. Is it redefining a function or is it already implemented and just needs enabled.

Cheers

Try ido-mode for files. But a word of caution, if any of the
directories have too many (~100s) files or sub-directories and are
remote (as in you are remote editing with tramp) emacs might become
extremely slow trying to find completions.

I already use ido-mode, but it doesn't recurse in the subdirectories (at least not by default).

I don't see any variable to customize for that, am I blind?

I like the dired solution, and for example I can set up some dir-local-variable setting the right switches, for example it's a good idea to filter hidden directories (like .git or .bzr).

I'll give finally a try also to anything
