UI: using autocomplete on command line

Open jerabaul29 opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Would there be a possibility to get autocompletion on the 'Enter debugger commands here' field? This would be especially useful when using "print some_variable" commands.

Thank you for the suggestion. That would be quite handy but I currently don't have much time to look into it. I'll be happy to review a pull request though.

Thanks for your fast answer.

I never wrote code for any Atom module so it may be a quite high threshold, but I will have a look at it. Any advise where I should look in your code, how / where I may be able to add this kind of feature?

To be honest, I have no idea how to implement autocomplete. The first thing to do is probably to study another package that implements autocomplete, but it may be a steep learning curve.

Ok.

I dropped an issue / request for help to autocomplete-python, we will see if they could help. I would hope that in the best of cases it may be easy for somebody familiar with autocomplete feature to help.
