Hmm, well I have a 1.5.2 here and:

$ iex
Interactive Elixir (1.5.2) - press Ctrl+C to exit (type h() ENTER for help)
iex> s = String
String
iex> s.

And I hit <Tab> there (repeatedly) and nothing pops up.

iex> String.

And <Tab> repeatedly and nothing pops up either..

Oh, I think this might be a Windows thing.  I have 1.5.2 installed on my 
Windows side (OTP 20), and I have 1.6.0-dev installed (OTP 21) on my linux 
side (I'm at work, 2 systems side by side).  I cannot seem to get `<Tab>` 
to ever popup anything in `iex` on windows...  Seems iex's autocomplete is 
broken there?
