Auto Complete
Posted: Tue Jul 03, 2007 11:35 am
I know that this has probably been posted in the past but would it be possible to have some kind of auto complete function when you are editing source code.
Maybe this could be as simple as creating a file per language in a known folder where we can list objects / properties / methods etc ... and dependant on the file type being loaded, patten match the word being typed with know words in in the file. Maybe something like the following structure:-
[object]
property
method
....
[object]
property
method
....
So for example if you entered an object name textpad could give you a just a list of the items in the [] tags, then when you entered a period '.' it would list the properties and methods under that object heading.
Just a thought ..... would basically be a simple lookup i think ! but would make textpad better than ever.
Let me know your thoughts.
Cheers
