;;; Commentary:

;; If you use the excellent `ido-mode' for efficient completion of
;; file names and buffers, you might wonder if you can get ido-style
;; completion everywhere else too. Well, that's what this package
;; does! ido-ubiquitous is here to enable ido-style completion for
;; (almost) every function that uses the standard completion function
;; `completing-read'.

;; To use this package, call `ido-ubiquitous-mode' to enable the mode,
;; or use `M-x customize-variable ido-ubiquitous-mode' it to enable it
;; permanently. Once the mode is enabled, most functions that use
;; `completing-read' will now have ido completion. If you decide in
;; the middle of a command that you would rather not use ido, just C-f
;; or C-b at the end/beginning of the input to fall back to non-ido
;; completion (this is the same shortcut as when using ido for buffers
;; or files).

;; Note that `completing-read' has some quirks and complex behavior
;; that ido cannot emulate. Ido-ubiquitous attempts to detect some of
;; these quirks and avoid using ido when it sees them. So some
;; functions will not have ido completion even when this mode is
;; enabled. Some other functions have ido disabled in them because
;; their packages already provide support for ido via other means (for
;; example, magit). See `M-x customize-group ido-ubiquitous' and read
;; about the override variables for more information.

;; ido-ubiquitous version 3.0 is a major update, including a split
;; into two packages, and some of the configuration options have
;; changed in non-backwards-compatible ways. If you have customized
;; ido-ubiquitous, be sure to check out `M-x customize-group
;; ido-ubiquitous' and `M-x customize-group ido-completing-read+'
;; after updating to 3.0 and make sure the new settings are to your
;; liking.
