Like hitting CTRL-Space automatically as you type. I use the one for Delphi called CNWizards which has it. Lets say I type "tstr", then the suggestion box is displayed automatically and TStrings is highlighted already with TStringList next in the list etc. At that point, all I have to do is hit Tab or Enter and the section is writtent the editor followed by a space so I can keep typing. The CNWizards version has useful settings such as how many characters have to be typed before auto suggestion is invoked. I like it set to three or four characters. I personally like it because it saves time when I have type write type names like TGenericMediatorClass. Instead, I type "tge" (or more letters) and the list is automatically displayed with the item closest matching what I typed already highlighted. I just hit enter and continue typing. I think open office (text editor) and Word have this same kind of feature. -- Warm Regards, Lee _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
