Re: patches for etags and shell-command

[Richard M. Stallman]

    I have two patches today; the first one changes shell-command so that the 
    default interactive argument is the current buffer's filename.

Is the idea that you type M-n to bring the current buffer's filename
into the minibuffer, and then you type the rest of the command around
it?  Access to that file name would be useful, but at the same time,
this interface would be rather inconvenient to use.

    This patch corrects a bug in etags that causes completion to only
    consider the tags in a single TAGS buffer.  With the match tag
    completion will consider tags from all the active TAGS buffers.

That seems like a clean extension.  I will forward it to the etags
maintainer.
