Wow, I love the tab autocompletion plugin! What would be amazing if we had a bash-style completion files were the arguments were also tab-completable, when relevant. Things like filenames, table/array names, send/receive names, etc. This completion file could be included in libraries. It really highlights how badly we need Enter/Return to instantiate the object.
Personally I prefer the default tcsh/bash-style where tab doesn't cycle thru the options when you hit tab repeatly. I could see a bash/tcsh style display of the options, like in a popup when you hit tab repeatedly.
hey thanks. I'm not really supposed to dedicate that ammount of time developping for pd but as I'm unemployed right now =) I'm afraid the bash style auto-completion is a bit above my head, but the idea is nice.
One thing that needs to happen to make the auto-complete plugin more deployable is to have all its procs in its own namespace. Otherwise there can easily be name conflicts with other things named 'init', 'trigger', etc.
done
(FYI: sending to pd-announce also sends to pd-list)
okay
