(minibuffer-choose-previous-completion)
(minibuffer-choose-next-completion): Remove commands.
(minibuffer-local-completion-map): Remove keybindings of
minibuffer-choose-next-completion and minibuffer-choose-previous-completion.
Use them for minibuffer-next-completion and minibuffer-previous-completion.
* lisp/simple.el (minibuffer-local-shell-command-map): Idem.
* lisp/simple.el (minibuffer-local-shell-command-map):
* lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer-local-completion-map):
Bind "M-<up>" to minibuffer-choose-previous-completion,
"M-<down>" to minibuffer-choose-next-completion,
"M-S-<up>" to minibuffer-previous-completion,
"M-S-<down>" to minibuffer-next-completion,
"M-RET" to minibuffer-choose-completion.
(with-minibuffer-completions-window): New macro.
(minibuffer-previous-completion, minibuffer-next-completion)
(minibuffer-choose-previous-completion)
(minibuffer-choose-next-completion)
(minibuffer-choose-completion): New commands.

* lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer-completion-help):
Set completion-base-affixes from base-prefix and base-suffix.
In completion-list-insert-choice-function handle
string values of start/end as prefix/suffix.
* lisp/simple.el (completion-base-affixes)
(completion-use-base-affixes): New variables.
(choose-completion): Let-bind base-affixes to completion-base-affixes.
Use base-affixes when completion-use-base-affixes is non-nil.
(completion-setup-function): Sync values of base-affixes and
completion-base-affixes.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion--insert-one-column) : Remove the extra
new-line at the end.
* lisp/simple.el (next-completion) : Fix behavior when
completion-wrap-movement and remove bobp and eobp. This removes the
extra tab ad the end of the list before wrapping or going to the
minibuffer and apparently also fixes bug#54374
(switch-to-completions) : Simplify condition code and remove comment not
applicable anymore.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion--in-region-1) : Change if with cond and
check if completion-auto-select.
* lisp/simple.el (completion-auto-select) : Move before first use.
(completion-setup-function) : Make a more precise check for when
completion-auto-select is t.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completions-header-format):
Rename from completion-header-format.
(completions-highlight, completions-highlight-face):
Move up before first use.
* doc/emacs/mini.texi (Completion Options): Fix pxref for
"Buffer Display Action Alists".
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-auto-help): Explain new values in docstring.
(completions-max-height): Use choice to allow nil.
* etc/NEWS: Document the new user option.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completions-sort): Add new user option.
(minibuffer-completion-help): Implement it for the Completions
buffer. (Bug#53362)
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-category-overrides): Clarify what
this variable does (bug#22324).
(completion-category-defaults): Mention the overrides variable.
If a configured completion style does not exist, throw a meaningful
error. Also make completion-styles-alist a defvar, since completion
styles like orderless extend it.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-styles-alist): Make it a defvar.
(completion--nth-completion): Give a more meaningful error.
* lisp/simple.el (completion-wrap-movement): Add new option.
(previous-completion): Update docstring.
(next-completion): Respect completion-wrap-movement.
(switch-to-completions): Handle backwards completion by jumping to the
end of the buffer.
* lisp/minibuffer.el: (minibuffer-local-completion-map): Bind
minibuffer-complete to backtab
(completion--in-region-1): Handle backtab to scroll backwards
Shorthands aren't symbols, they're text forms that 'read' into
symbols. As such, shorthands aren't candidates in these tables of
symbols. But in some situations, if no other candidates match the
pattern, we can e.g. complete "x-foo" to "xavier-foo" if the shorthand
(("x-" . "xavier-"))
is set up in the buffer of origin.
bug#50959
* lisp/help-fns.el (help--symbol-completion-table): Report
`symbol-help' category.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-styles-alist): New 'shorthand'
style.
(completion-category-defaults): Link 'symbol-help' category with
'shorthand' style.
(minibuffer--original-buffer): New variable.
(completing-read-default): Setup minibuffer--original-buffer.
(completion-shorthand-try-completion)
(completion-shorthand-all-completions): New helpers.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer-quit-recursive-edit): New optional
argument to specify how many levels of recursion to quit.
* src/eval.c (internal_catch): Remove special handling of 'exit
tag (bug#49700).
* src/minibuf.c (Fabort_minibuffers): Use
minibuffer-quit-recursive-edit to quit multiple levels of minibuffer
recursion.
The default sorting order will mess up the naturally grouped order of
the candidates in the table that specified the group-function.
As seen in xref.el when
(setq xref-show-definitions-function
'xref-show-definitions-completing-read)
(setq completions-group t)
M-x fido-mode
Also partially seen with C-x 8 RET (M-x insert-char) with
(setq read-char-by-name-sort 'code)
bug#48545
* lisp/minibuffer.el (completion-all-sorted-completions): Don't
use default sort if there's a group-function in the table.
