Hi Neil,

>  Don't you mean that word is pointing at "Vie"?

Oops!... yes I do.

I see what the guy writing the request wants... but surely one point of
having autocompletion (even in the case of case insensitivity) is to get
consistent capitalisation of known keywords and identifiers...

Also, I would expect matching (in case insensitive mode) to match the
shortest possible word from the list so that adding an auto-complete
character, for instance '(' in my case, chooses the expected word from the
list, not a much longer word that just happens to be cased the same as my
typing at the start.

I would have no problem with code that would use case sensitive compare to
distinguish between two or more words of the same length.

That is, change the code to take the length of the first word (which must be
the shortest in the list as the list is sorted, right), then search through
following words of the same length for an exact match. This would then
satisfy the request (as described).

Greg
