问题
I frequently use dired-mode and I recently started using ido:
(ido-mode 1); enable ido-mode
(setq ido-enable-flex-matching t); flexibly match names via fuzzy matching
(setq ido-everywhere t); use ido-mode everywhere, in buffers and for finding files
(setq ido-use-filename-at-point 'guess); for find-file-at-point
(setq ido-use-url-at-point t); look for URLs at point
(setq ffap-require-prefix t); get find-file-at-point with C-u C-x C-f
When I copy a file (with C) in a dired buffer, I still have to use the "standard way" of giving the new location where the file is copied to. That means, I have to use standard TAB-completion but there is no ido-completion. The same applies for R for moving files etc. I am thus wondering if it is possible to get ido also acting on C or R in dired buffers?
回答1:
Looks like I had the same problem you are experiencing. Some investigating shows that we need to override the variable read-file-name-function which, by default, calls read-file-name-function-default. But, looking at the source code for ido-everywhere (which is a minor mode), it does this for us.
Solution:
Rather than doing (setq ido-everywhere t), replace that with:
(ido-everywhere t)
This fixes it for me, causing ido-read-file-name to be called in dired buffers when you use C or similar.
Another Option:
You might also consider this beefed up version of ido-everywhere:

I found that (put 'dired-do-rename 'ido 'find-file) for the R key works fine, if you need to stop at a path you simply press C-j instead of completing a file name.
