Autocomplete for Tcl?
by Tom SAVELL
::
Rate this Message:
I use Komodo for Tcl development. I really want auto-complete. But it seems like it is not implemented for Tcl. How can I get auto-complete for Tcl? The other editor I have used made it very easy to implement auto-complete, and they included a basic Tcl auto-complete template. I was able to easily edit the template to customize it to my preferred style. -Tom Notice The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.

Komodo does have auto-complete for Tcl among its stable of dynamic language intelligence. If you are in a recognized Tcl file (by default, anything with .tcl), and type something like 'nam...' you should see the dropdown with all the 'namespace' options. In addition, you will have calltips when no further options are available. It is possible to have this turned off in Preferences -> Code Intelligence, but it is on by default. > The other editor I have used made it very easy to implement > auto-complete, and they included a basic Tcl auto-complete template.

These are in /path/to/Komodo/lib/support/tcl/ as the *.tip files. You can create your own .tip or extend those (they are text files in a simple format).

Hi Jeff, Thanks for the quick reply. Okay, so I see that if I type pro up comes a drop-down that shows "proc", and if I hit the tab key, it types "proc" for me. What I would prefer is I type pro<tab> And it auto-completes as: ############################################################# # Procedure: # # Arguments: # None # # Returns: # Nothing # # See Also: # proc procName {args} { } It's not clear to me that this is possible with *.tip files, e.g. tcl-core.tip. Here is the entry for proc: proc <name> <args> <body> I see that the behavior of Komodo when I type "proc<space>" is that it produces a floating help box that shows "<name> <args> <body>". So I don't really see how to make the auto-complete put in an entire proc template for me. I would like the same behavior for other statements like switch, if, while, etc. Can I do this with the *.tip files? -Tom Notice The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.

You can get this with Komodo's Abbreviations feature. http://docs.activestate.com/komodo/4.4/abbreviations.html#abbrev_top Cheers, Trent -- Trent Mick trentm at activestate.com _______________________________________________ Komodo-discuss mailing list Komodo-discuss@...

By default abbreviations are bound to 'Ctrl'+'T', but you can change this to 'Tab' if you wish: Edit|Preferences|Editor|Key Bindings|Commands -> Editor: Insert Abbreviation Snippet by Name When you view 'proc' snippet's properties, it looks like this: proc [[%tabstop:NAME]] {[[%tabstop:ARGS]]} { [[%tabstop]] } To get what you're looking for, you would edit the snippet to look like this: ############################################################# # Procedure: [[%tabstop:procName]] # # Arguments: # [[%tabstop:Args]] # # Returns: # [[%tabstop]] # # See Also: # proc [[%tabstop:procName]] {[[%tabstop:Args]]} { [[%tabstop]] } While you're editing the snippet's properties, you could also shorten the name to 'pro' to get it to trigger on three characters.

Hi Tom,
As of version 4.3, Komodo has supported prefix-sensitive abbreviations. They're based on three things: the language of the file you're editing, the word to the right of the cursor, and the contents of the snippet in any Toolbox folder with the path Abbreviations/<language>/<word> Komodo ships with five snippets for Tcl, including "proc", with this value: proc [[%tabstop:NAME]] {[[%tabstop:ARGS]]} { [[%tabstop]] } You would type "proc", then Ctrl-T (default keybindings), and it would expand to the above. You can easily add another snippet called "pro" to the Samples/Abbreviations/Tcl folder, with contents like this: ############################################################# # Procedure: [[%tabstop:procName]] # # Arguments: # [[%tabstop:args]] # # Returns: # [[%tabstop:Nothing]] # # See Also: # [[%tabstop:]] # proc [[%tabstop:procName]] {[[%tabstop:args]]} { [[%tabstop:]] } You would then type "pro" followed by Ctrl-T (we're working on getting Tab to work here, but it has some conflicting operations bound to it), and then tab through to set the various settings. The *.tip files are more useful for navigating through APIs.
