It's dabbrev-expand, bound to C-TAB by default. I wouldn't dream of typing any kind of text (source code or otherwise) into an editor without this feature. It saves a lot of time, typos and wrist pain. So, it's not surprising that both vim and emacs has it. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <jgrahn@ Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu \X/ algonet.se> R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
