Moreover, I was looking for something short to type, and possibly compatible with completion widgets, such as expand-or-complete. Otherwise, there would be a solution to use a function that does what I want, of the form $(dirfile 'dirpattern' 'filepattern') but this is not satisfactory. -- Vincent Lefèvre - Web: 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
