Of course, I know your Filename Completion and I was inspired by  
it ;). I used it quite a while. But then it turned out that I prefer  
a slightly different behaviour.

for example:

- '/us' -> automatically to '/usr/' [if 'us' is unambiguous]
- '/usr' -> I like to see the content of '/usr/' (instead of having a  
pull-down item '/')
- I often write '/Apppli' ;) -> so I looked for a kind of 'auto- 
correction'
- Many times I write within a bundle command in Ruby/Perl etc.  
'TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT' or whatever. After it I would like to insert a  
file name very easily.
- I found it quite useful just to invoke the command to see the  
content of the current directory based on TM_DIRECTORY
- and some other tiny stuff
- one thing I didn't implement: With your code I can select a part of  
the path and replace it. By myself I never used it but if there is a  
need for it I could add it.
