How does the following compare with your version of uEmacs? Is it
missing anything? Currently I have it compiled on x86_64 and stripped
it is 133008 bytes as a 64-bit executable.

FILE NAME COMPLETION
File name completion can be used with all file commands (find-file, view-file, ...) but it works only under UNIX and MS-DOS. It is invoked
by a <Space> or <Tab>. If there exist more than one possible
completions they are displayed one by one. If the file name contains
wild card characters, the name is expanded instead of simple
completion. Special characters can be entered verbatim by prefixing
them with ^V (or ^Q). -----------------------------------------------------------------------

But most of it looks quite familiar.... and the commands I do use
are all there... :)

Excellent. I think this is probably the closest one can get to the original these days.
