One of the things I missed the most when moving from auto-complete to company was the documentation popups that would appear when idling on a completion candidate. This package remedies that situation.
auto-complete uses
popup-el to do it's thing
and this results in quite a few glitches. This package uses the much
better pos-tip to display the
popups. I recommend installing pos-tip using melpa
which fetches the version of pos-tip which is located
here.
This version contains a few bugfixes not included in the original on
emacswiki.
I highly recommend installing through elpa.
It's available on melpa:
M-x package-install company-quickhelp
put (company-quickhelp-mode 1) in you init.el to activate `company-quickhelp-mode'.
You can adjust the time it takes for the documentation to pop up by changing `company-quickhelp-delay'
Yes
