I just tried out the latest commit, now after the shell is loaded, in a
.m file matlab-complete-symbol, works now as expected. Thanks!
However I don't understand the default keybinding
(define-key km "\M-\t" 'matlab-complete-symbol)
That is a quite old binding, so on modern PC that translates to escape
tab, at least on my Thinkpad X1, which is a bit cumbersome to use.
Should we change that to alt tab?
Any opinions?
On newer Emacsen M-TAB is already bound to complete-symbol or variant
that uses 'completion-at-point-functions' configuration variable.
I think the right solution is to remove `matlab-complete-symbol', and to
augment completion-at-point-functions so that users who customize their
completion engine (such as by using company mode) will get that effect
for MATLAB buffers also. I'm not sure how big a change that is though,
which is why I was thinking closing out some open stuff and making a new
branch for that experiment would be worth while.
I'd also like to better understand Karthik's patch which I haven't had a
chance to look into yet. I haven't used the xref system enough to know
how it works yet.
Eric
