Hi Oleh

Thanks for the patch.

I think you can use completion-ignore-case to do what you want, but I 
haven't had time to give it a try.  Perhaps that could make your patch 
simpler?

For example:
	;; Use try completion to seek a common substring.
	(let* ((completion-ignore-case t)
		(tc (try-completion (or pre "")  syms)))


??

Thanks
