I'm not able to reproduce the above with the minimal configuration
from your earlier email.  I do get a different odd behavior:

% ls fo[] folder1
% ls fo[] folder1
folder1 folder2 folder3

where "folder1" is selected and the "o" in "fo" at the prompt is
highlighted in boldface.  If accept one of the menu choices (e.g.,
press Enter):

% ls folder1/o[] folder1

I haven't figured out where the highlighting is coming from or why
that causes the insertion to occur one character to the left of the
cursor.
