You're right. Set `(corfu-auto-prefix 2)` does the trick, as shown in the attached screenshot. > In your other mail, you wrote: > > > Another problem I noticed: > > > > 3.

Now, I add the `:demand t` to the corfu's use-package configuration, but the problem still remains: (use-package corfu :demand t ;; Optional customizations :custom ;; (corfu-cycle t) ;; Enable cycling for `corfu-next/previous' (corfu-auto t) ;; Enable auto completion (corfu-auto-prefix 2) ;; (corfu-separator ?\s) ;; Orderless field separator ;; (corfu-quit-at-boundary nil) ;; Never quit at completion boundary ;; (corfu-quit-no-match nil) ;; Never quit, even if there is no match ;; (corfu-preview-current nil) ;; Disable current candidate preview ;; (corfu-preselect 'prompt) ;; Preselect the prompt ;; (corfu-on-exact-match nil) ;; Configure handling of exact matches ;; (corfu-scroll-margin 5) ;; Use scroll margin ;; Enable Corfu only for certain modes. ;; :hook ((prog-mode . corfu-mode) ;; (shell-mode . corfu-mode) ;; (eshell-mode . corfu-mode)) ;; Recommended: Enable Corfu globally. ;; This is recommended since Dabbrev can be used globally (M-/). ;; See also `corfu-exclude-modes'. :init (global-corfu-mode)) ;; A few more useful configurations...
