There is no Vim script function to extract the lines from the popup menu. However, as you realize, Ctrl-X Ctrl-K in insert mode gets its data from the files specified with the 'dictionary' option. You could extract your data directly from those files, couldn't you? Or, if the 'dictionary' option is empty, then the completion data comes from the spell files for the current spelling language. Again you could try to get your data directly from the spell files. That's all I've got. Maybe somebody else has a better idea ... glts -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
