gEdit Autocomplete: chose from a list of suggestions to complete words in gEdit
This is a great tool if you write code in gEdit. Unfortunately it could still use some polish, and hasn't been updated in 3 years now :/
You thought this thingie is scanning all the opened documents every time you press a key? Thinik again, it's not really feasible on today's 64-bit-at-several-gigahertz crappy technology :-)) So, what's left as a solution is to have the scanning of the documents happen based on some criteria. This release mainly enhances the "user experience" when working on several docs in the sense that the autocomplete is more sensitive to what you type. More simply put, a few new situations when the doc is scanned were added. Also added quick search for words-containg-selection (select a "sub-word" and hit <ALT>+/
Case-insensivity to the regexd autocomplete
Added regex-based autocomplete
Activated the code that scans all the opened files and builds a single autocomplete dictionary for all the files. In order to make the editor reasonably responsive when editing many large files simultaneously opened in gEdit, it now only scans the document when typing the beginning of a word. On large documents/file sets there will be a response lag right after/before typing/deleting the first character of a word Also changed a linear sort routing to log (hope i didn't use this 'opportunity' to throw in some bugs).
