Description
When Readline.completion_proc returns more than one match, you are presented with empty line insted of what you have already put in.
require 'readline'
Readline.completion_proc = Proc.new do |word|
['foo', 'bar']
end
while buf = Readline.readline('> ')
pp buf
end
You will end up with
> aa<TAB>
bar foo
> <ENTER>
""
Works as expected on linux.

Works when the string is actual prefix for the completion.
require 'readline'
Readline.completion_proc = Proc.new do |word|
['aafoo', 'aabar']
end
while buf = Readline.readline('> ')
pp buf
end
produces
> aa<TAB>
aabar aafoo
> aa<ENTER>
"aa"
However, it would still be nice to have it behave same way on linux and windows.
