Can I start with Find file: /currentpath/ in the minibuffer when I do M-x ido-find-file?
When I run M-x ido-find-file (or C-x C-f in my setup), emacs uses the current line as the default file. It shows Find file: /currentpath/currentlineinbuffer in the minibuffer. So the first thing I have to do is delete that default file (e.g., using ESC backspace).
I know about C-x C-f C-f to go back to regular find-file behavior, but I prefer to use ido-find-file except for this issue.
The value of variable ido-use-filename-at-point should be nil for required behavior. Remove string
(or something like this) from your config or setup
at the end of the config.
