Emacs completion bugfix

[wilsaj]

Tab completion in ipython.el seems to have stopped working because it calls completer.IPCompleter.all_completions(), which is broken. IPCompleter.complete() now returns a list of all possible completions so it can be used instead of all_completions().

This works for me; I modified my .emacs to have,

(setq ipython-completion-command-string "print(';'.join(get_ipython().Completer.complete('%s')[1])) #PYTHON-MODE SILENT\n")

This removes all_completions from Completer, but it is also used in IPython.core.debugger.Pdb. That should presumably be changed as well.

I'm sorry that I missed that.

It looks like there isn't a clean fix for the IPython.core.debugger.Pdb thing, since that is bound up in the interface to pydb. The debugger code replaces the completer.all_completions with pydb's all_completions method and emacs will need to call that one without the indexing business.

Anyway, I pushed a new commit that just makes all_completions a very thin wrapper around the complete method; that should work for everyone.

Fix emacs tab-completion with simpler implementation.

Add pydb to the list of beneficiaries in the
IPython.completer.Completer.all_completions docstring

Hi all.
I'm using IPython in my emacs24 and auto-completion desn't work with this fix (setq ipython-completion-command-string "print(';'.join(get_ipython().Completer.complete('%s')[1])) #PYTHON-MODE SILENT\n")
