helm package works great for listing all options and completions. One thing that bothers for a long time is that the first available option is not automatically chosen. the following screenshot shows the problem enter image description here

when I type "sc", I want the first option "scratch" being highlighted so I can just press enter to switch to it, not C-n then enter.

Anyone know how to tune this performance? Thank you

It looks like you're using some custom settings of `helm`. The default behavior already does what you ask. – abo-abo Jan 18 '15 at 14:46
@abo-abo, that's what i thought, thank you, i will try to correct it. – fast tooth Jan 18 '15 at 18:31

turns out that I didn't enable the helm-mini with C-x b keybinding. (global-set-key (kbd "C-x b") 'helm-mini) – fast tooth Jan 18 '15 at 21:37
