what is the point of the ^F pathname completion appending one space after the 
pathname is completed? is it only to indicate successful completion?

once the space is appended, performing a right-click on the pathname often 
requires moving the mouse over the pathname. if there was no space appended, 
the (empty) selection would remain next to the last character of pathname and 
right-click anywhere would acquire it.

recently developed program which translates from one computer language to 
another and has a built-in editing system which identifies errors in the 
original program.'' - student newspaper
