Set 'wildmenu' on; then
:e M<Tab>
will, if you have more than one M* file in the current directory, show
the possible completions as a menu on the bottom statusline. Select with
<Left> <Right>, possibly walk the directory tree with <Down> (descend
into child) and <Up> (back to parent), approve with <Enter>, cancel with
<Esc>
Best regards,
Tony.
