Re: [gedit-list] "Document Words Completion" plugin

[Perriman <chuchiperriman gmail com>]

Hi Chombee,

	Thanks for your comments!!! The snippets library is at the
start, I really develop the vars popup to test regexp and to do an
standard popup not depending on gedit to use with other applications
(we use it in my job). I want to develop an in-place variable
replacement but I need some time to do it :(

	We are working on include GtkSourceCompletion into
GtkSourceView and, when we finish, we could use it in all applications
using gtksourceview.

	Currently we haven't got a source code completion.
GtkSourceCompletion supports custom providers. You (or someone) can
write a C code provider, a python code provider etc to provide the data
to GtkSourceCompletion. If someone develop this provider, we can use it
in all application with GtkSourceView, this is the idea.

Regards,
	Perriman
