OK.
And have to manually append a / before continuing. Emacs can't figure
out whether a given completion is a directory or not becuase it
doesn't know the value of 'rl_filename_completion_desired'.
Emacs can bind a key sequence to rl_dump_variables (`dump-variables') and
parse the output, but your solution is cleaner.
From looking through the completions display code, it seems like
'print_filename' is what adds these slashes when displaying
completions.
Is this all that emacs needs, or should we add a call to printable_part()
as with other uses of print_filename()?
