I reciently switched to emacs starter kit which includes the ido package.
ido has a nice feature that suggests paths when find-file which is usually very handy except when trying to create a new file. When the new file name matches a suggestion in another path ido automatically switches to that path assuming that's what I wanted, but usually its not and I find it annoying.
To workaround the issue I either touch newfile from shell, create a new buffer and save as, or M-x find-file to get the original behavior. I could of course rebind C-x C-f to find-file again but must of the time I like ido-find-file, I just want it to stop automatically switching paths when I type the path explicitly.
I figure there is probably some simple key I can press during ido-find-file to tell it that the file I'm looking for does not exist and to stop making suggestions, or some var I can set to get more desirable behavior?
