very strange output from emacspeak, can't read command completion.

Hi Krishna,

Have you tried completing when there is more than one choice
available?

I just now opened a chell buffer (M-x shell) from my scratch
buffer. So I was at the shell prompt in my ~/ directory.

I typed cd new and pressed TAB. Emacspeak started reading out the
Completion List buffer which looked like this

Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

Possible completions are:
new-packages/			   new.vm
new.vm~				   new/
newton/

I did C-x-o to get to this buffer and pressed M-f repetedly to move
forward by word till I reached newton/ then pressed RET, this brought
me back to the shell buffer and the point was at the end of the
completed line
$ cd newton. Pressing RET I went to the directory ~/newton/

I don't see the problem. But then I have character echo		`on'
rather than `off' but I doubt that makes a difference. 

You should assume that Emacs will do the completion correctly  and if
you are paraanoid after pressing TAB press M-b to hear the last word.

HTH.

Cheers.
