To me, text completion is well explained in the manual. Except
for the definition of the icons, I couldn't find an explanation
for them. I know of 4 different types of completions, maybe you
could figure out what each means. The 4 types of completions
that I know of are:
- document (terms from the current document)
- dictionary (words from dictionary)
- clippings (user-defined and default sets)
- html (built-in html completions)
Hmm, I just remembered a 5th, but they might be part of the
'document' group. Terms from a tags (ctags) file are also
available for auto-completion.
And I just saw this in the manual; more canonical than my list above:
Completions are derived from a variety of sources, including (in
no particular order):
•clippings (both language-specific and universal);
•ctags symbols computed by running the current document
through 'ctags';
•ctags symbols found in 'tags' files in the current
document's hierarchy;
•predefined names for the source code language at the
point of completion;
•language-specific completions;
•dictionary words provided by the system spelling service
So, all the symbols in the completions menu should correlate to
one of the above completion sources.
