But it seems to default to 30000, at least in Emacs ver. 22.1 . But this doesn't seem to refer to the number of files but something else. Here is defcustom from ido.el:
(defcustom ido-max-directory-size 30000 "*Maximum size (in bytes) for directories to use ido completion. If you enter a directory with a size larger than this size, ido will not provide the normal completion. To show the completions, use C-a." :type '(choice (const :tag "No limit" nil) (integer :tag "Size in bytes" 30000)) :group 'ido) So there is a "No limit" option. Ed
