Hi John,

Just as a reminder, this is a developers forum. Questions related to
general configuration questions should be asked in stackoverflow with
a 'pydev' tag.

Regarding your issue, I think that the 'predefined completions' can
solve it. See: http://www.pydev.org/manual_101_interpreter.html

Cheers,

Fabio

p.s.: if you have further doubts regarding this, please ask at stack overflow.
