[Geany] Completions in strings
Hello, Symbol completions does not seem to be working inside quoted strings. Do I need to enable something hidden to get it working properly or is it just a bug? Geany version: 0.20 on Fedora 14 Thanks in advance.

One of the original devs would have to answer that.

Works for me in C in both strings and comments, I don't have any PHP available, maybe someone else can check.

I think we could add a pref, some IDEs do this by default.
I think in this case it should complete by default to self.getShortName
(). Delimiters could be (, [, { and any other whitespace.

This would be cool. This is something that happens quite often and
could speed up my coding a bit :)

Well, that depends on how smart Geany can become: if it can deduct,
that it is a function it is completing, then starting bracket would be
cool, but the trailing not so much (in Visual Studio when I code in
C++ I hate this). If it could be very smart and:
* deduct, that there aren't any args and can add both brackets
* deduct, that there are some args and add both brackets and then set
the cursor _inside_, then it would be great; but I don't know, if it's
easy to add such stuff, especially to Python. To some statically typed
language it should be easier.
Still, good completions can enhance editor experience a lot, so I
believe it's worth tinkering about it :-) Especially today, when many
projects adopt usingVeryLongSymbols, that should be completed by the
editor, otherwise they are a real pain :)

Re: [Geany] Completions
Delimiters should be anything that can't be part of an identifier.
