Ups, i didn't know. But i see that kfm has only filename completion (and
i dont think it is structured very well for extensions). What i have in
mind is filename completion and general URL completion from a history
list and bookmarks. The history list is of course very fast, so maybe it
is best just to try to complete up to longest common prefix of the
history without waiting for the user to type C-d. The part of the URL
that is automatically filled in should then be selected so that it is
easy to get rid of again if it wasn't what the user wants.

Well, after reading the last few lines i realize that i cant explain it
in english today (sorry ;-) and since i have the right klined now, i
think it's better if i just go code something.

greetings,
