gEdit Autocomplete suggests word completions based on the text in the active document and in an additional language library file.
THIS PLUGIN HAS BEEN DEPRECATED IN FAVOR OF GEDIT-PLUGIN-CODECOMPLETION.
A demo of this plugin working - with snippets and classbrowser, of course - is available at YouTube! You can check it working before downloading.
- Copy both
autocomplete.gedit-plugin
andautocomplete
folder to~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins
- Open gedit and click
Edit -> Preferences -> Plugins
- Check the
Autocomplete (gedit-json-completion)
and hitClose
- Check the
Word Completion
and hitClose
- That's it! Now you can start coding and watch the popup working. Hit
Return
orTab
to accept the completion.
NOTE: Windows users should follow the instructions of http://zend.lojcomm.com.br/entries/setting-autocomplete-to-work-in-windows-gedit/
To add new language libraries to gedit-json-completion, just drop a <language_id>.json
in the lib folder. To retrieve a python list of the available languages, use:
import gtksourceview2 as _
lm = _.LanguageManager()
ids = lm.get_language_ids()

Plugin completely rewritten. Renamed the version to 0.10.0. Notable features:

- Tips are now sorted

@2009-10-17
Merged the configurable branch. Renamed the version to 0.9.8
- The completion behavior can be one of the following :
- global : each window shares their words, so any word in any window is eligible for completion anywhere
- local : each window only knows its own words, so only those are eligible for completion in the window.
- A global list of predefined words is available in any window.
- A configuration dialog is available to tweak the above settings.
@2009-10-03
Added an plugin icon.Renamed the version to 0.9.7
@2009-10-04
bugfix: Completion was active only on the last opened window. Previous opened windows lost the completion feature.

I did a brief read in the plugin, changed tabs into four spaces, fixed some typos and made the required changes to make Return run as the trigger instead of Tab.
