Hehe - of course, another point of view is that it means you can save your typing effort on using more verbose object, handler and variable names ;)

For me, I say run with it. When its all tuned up and shiny I expect to love it!

I must confess I tend to turn AutoComplete off in most environments as I tend to find it gets in the way (usually you have to move your fingers away from 'home' position to use it or cancel it - which slows down typing considerably)...

However, I really like Mike's idea of having a middle 'not-quite-off' option - where you can use a shortcut key to autocomplete at any point. This would save a roundtrip to the dictionary to remind myself of specific syntax - the completion list would be enough of a 'reminder'.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.

P.S. Mike filed the shortcut suggestion as http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20393
