What is the value of `tramp-completion-function-alist'? What does the

Does it help to call
(tramp-set-completion-function
"plink"
'((tramp-parse-shosts "~/.ssh/known_hosts")))
No. Problem and value of (tramp-get-completion-function "plink") the same.
Is there a difference in methods "plink" and "plinkx" (you seem to use
both methods)?
I use PuTTY for console connections to remote hosts, Cygwin rsync for
bulk transfers, plink for tunnelling VNC and Tramp. So in XEmacs I'm
using ~/.ssh/known_hosts for the list of hosts but the keys are
actually in Pageant/plink. Separate copies of the keys are in the two systems.
plinkx and plink both exhibit the same problem with session/host completion.
The impression that I get is that XEmacs is not delegating completion
responsibility to Tramp until the "]" is entered. Or maybe Tramp is
matching on a regexp that does not grok incomplete file specifications.
