can I select it without more alphabet in emacs?

enter image description here



I am in above picture. I want to select common-media-session.h, but I always select it using tab or c-n or c-p in vim.



Can I go to next candidate like vim?

  • It’s not the canonical way, but C-M-/ (perhaps more than once) would work here.

    This question seems about emacs and the evil-mode. Remove the tag "vim" and add "evil-mode".

    I recommend you to use narrowing framework. Helm or Ivy.

If you enable icomplete-mode, then you can use C-. and c-, to move to the next/previous candidate.



If you set completion-cycling to a non-nil value, then you can simply hit TAB several times until you get to the completion you want.



Personally, I'd just type com-s.h TAB instead.
