Hi Yvan,
First off, great plugin - love the feature!
I just checked out the latest version of the autocomplete plugin from github.
Every time I start up Pd I get the same error (this doesn't seem to affect any functionality):
UNHANDLED ERROR: can't rename to "::pd_bindings::sendkey_old": command already exists while executing "rename ::pd_bindings::sendkey ::pd_bindings::sendkey_old" ("uplevel" body line 12) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $tclcode" FAILED TO LOAD /Users/joe/Library/Pd/autocompletion-plugin.tcl
Also, when using the tab function, after the context menu shows, pressing the arrow keys (or any other key) followed by TAB again gives the following 'Application Error':
Error: Cannot call post message while al...
Once this shows Pd becomes unresponsive and I have to force quit it.
I'm running Pd-0.43-0 on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.7
Thanks, Joe

The auto-completion is fantastic stuff! Especially the drop-down menu

Congratulations Yvan, HC& JW.
Is there anyway of modifying the plugin so that instead of using TAB this happens...
there is a new version but it's still expermiental (and unreleased). if you wanna test it:
http://github.com/gusano/pd_stuffs
and checkout autocompletion_experimental branch
- Create new object -> list of objects appear in full (0-9, a-z) but
focus
stays in object
then it can be a *long* list of objects so I should change the GUI for it (nomore popup menu but a window with scrollbars but then you don't have an easy overview of all completions...). not sure I really want that though :/ maybe this could be a user option ?
- Begin typing -> list of objects reduces as you type
the experimental version does that but there are still some bugs
- See the one you want -> arrow key up/down, focus changes to
drop-down box
then ENTER to select desired object
the current version does that
cheers, _y
