Okay. 2.32 now has some slightly better code to handle this; it starts
out with a default list, and then auguments that when it reads your
BBDB. What it doesn't do at present:
* complete on anything other than the phone and address labels. This
is hardcoded, but there's room for change there. I promise I won't
change the variable names again. Unless I really, really need to.
* update the lists when you add records in the current session.
* fold case. "Work" and "work" are two different labels.
* force you to use the list, or something. So it's still not quite the
typo-prevention measure that you requested a few eons back. I guess
it could work like C-o does - if you enter something it doesn't
recognise, it asks you if you really meant that.
* complete on data. I've started on this, but I'm thinking about how
generic I want to make it, and getting scared of the quantities of
data involved and so forth. If you have a big BBDB, you could very
quickly end up with a lot of completion lists. Also, some fields
don't make sense to complete data on, such as Name or Net.
Cheers,
Waider.
