Hi,
This is an extremely minor thing, but …
If I’m editing a buffer, perhaps *scratch*, then find-file
(helm-find-files actually) prompts: /Users/ndw/
If I’m in the gnus (v5.13) *Groups* buffer, it prompts: /Users/ndw
Note the absence of a trailing slash.
I don’t know how many times I’ve type C-x C-f /path/to/somewhere and
not gone where I expected.
Can anyone explain the discrepancy? (I usually run M-x gnus in the
*scratch* buffer, as it happens, though I doubt that’s relevant.)
Be seeing you,
norm
