<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi.</p> <p>I really like the idea of pycomplete a lot.</p> <p>However, it only completes simple cases: "sys.cl"<br /> becomes "sys.clock" once completed.</p> <p>What would be interesting would be to get a list of<br /> completions for "sys.".</p> <p>I believe that what needs to be changed is the following:<br /> - have pycomplete.py return a list of all possibilities<br /> - in py-complete() in pycomplete.el, use the output of<br /> pycomplete.py to call try-completion; if it works, use<br /> it, if not and there are several possibilities, display<br /> all the possibilities given by all-completions and<br /> allow to chose between them.</p> <p>The former is trivial (patch attached).</p> <p>I tried to do the latter, but my lack of knowledge in<br /> elisp put a rapid stop to it, so in case somebody knows<br /> elisp and is interested by this (I think it would be a<br /> cool feature), I thought I'd record the idea here.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Hugo</p></div>
