There is a high probability that I am being dense, but it actually seems
to work for me now. Here is what I'm doing.
:imap <C-N> <C-R>=Wibble()<CR>
function! Wibble()
if pumvisible()
return "visible"
else
return "unvisible"
endif
endf
I type the beginning of a tag ("actor_") and press <C-P> to open up the
popup menu. Vim enters the first match ("actor_get"), and I then press
<C-N>, and it changes the string to "actor_getvisible".
In normal insert mode pressing <C-N> just enters "unvisible".
Either I am misunderstanding the problem, or maybe I'm just special? Let
me know if you need any more details of my setup.
