I do not know if this a bug or only feature I don't like. But I have
bbdb-pop-up-target-lines 5 (as it is default) it works fine whan I
read meil in VM. But when I want send mail using completion, the pop
up BBDB buffer is always half of my whole XEmacs window high. Or is
there some other variable to configure this? I did not find any.... I
I would like to have always pop up 5-8 lines BBDB buffer, if I want it
bigger I can manually make larget it, but usually it is
enough. Ofcourse I can do C-x 1, but anyway... half window high BBDB
buffer is never useful for me.
Well, I'm very new with BBDB, but I like it a lot! Only some fetures I
need was missing (like only snarf all outgoing e-mail, but I found
moy-bbdb package, and it works!) and now almost everything works how I
like.
BTW. I am too lazy to press M-tab, I like only simple tab works with
headers. So I wrote this:
;---------------------------
(defun my-mail-tab ()
"Call bbdb-complete-name, if cursor in Header fields
of the message, otherwise normal? \"TAB\" behaviour."
(interactive)
(let ((my-complete nil)
(case-fold-search t))
(save-excursion
(if (search-forward (concat "\n" mail-header-separator
"\n") nil t)
(setq my-complete t)))
(if my-complete
(bbdb-complete-name)
(indent-relative))))
;;;
(add-hook 'mail-setup-hook
'(lambda ()
(define-key mail-mode-map "\t" 'my-mail-tab)))
;---------------------------
Is this too kludge to get to the default behauvior? Or why the tab do
not work in the default behauvior like that when sending mail (in VM
or in Gnus)?
