In the next GNU Emacs release, the following will achieve this:
(setq file-name-shadow-tty-properties '(invisible t))
(file-name-shadow-mode 1)
so adding rfn-eshadow.el from the CVS repository to emacs-goodies-el
is another possibility. (When Emacs 22 is packaged, I guess you may
have to think about which should come first in the load-path; other
packages that will be distributed with Emacs 22 and are already in
emacs-goodies-el include table and wdired. Maybe this is already
sorted -- I didn't look.)
