23 ;;; Commentary:
25 ;; Names with "--" are for functions and variables that are meant to be for
26 ;; internal use only.
28 ;; Functional completion tables have an extended calling conventions:
29 ;; The `action' can be (additionally to nil, t, and lambda) of the form
30 ;; - (boundaries . SUFFIX) in which case it should return
31 ;; (boundaries START . END). See `completion-boundaries'.
32 ;; Any other return value should be ignored (so we ignore values returned
33 ;; from completion tables that don't know about this new `action' form).
34 ;; - `metadata' in which case it should return (metadata . ALIST) where
35 ;; ALIST is the metadata of this table. See `completion-metadata'.
36 ;; Any other return value should be ignored (so we ignore values returned
37 ;; from completion tables that don't know about this new `action' form).
39 ;;; Bugs:
41 ;; - completion-all-sorted-completions list all the completions, whereas
42 ;; it should only lists the ones that `try-completion' would consider.
43 ;; E.g. it should honor completion-ignored-extensions.
44 ;; - choose-completion can't automatically figure out the boundaries
45 ;; corresponding to the displayed completions because we only
46 ;; provide the start info but not the end info in
47 ;; completion-base-position.
48 ;; - quoting is problematic. E.g. the double-dollar quoting used in
49 ;; substitute-in-file-name (and hence read-file-name-internal) bumps
50 ;; into various bugs:
51 ;; - choose-completion doesn't know how to quote the text it inserts.
52 ;; E.g. it fails to double the dollars in file-name completion, or
53 ;; to backslash-escape spaces and other chars in comint completion.
54 ;; - when completing ~/tmp/fo$$o, the highlighting in *Completions*
55 ;; is off by one position.
56 ;; - all code like PCM which relies on all-completions to match
57 ;; its argument gets confused because all-completions returns unquoted
58 ;; texts (as desired for *Completions* output).
59 ;; - C-x C-f ~/*/sr ? should not list "~/./src".
60 ;; - minibuffer-force-complete completes ~/src/emacs/t<!>/lisp/minibuffer.el
61 ;; to ~/src/emacs/trunk/ and throws away lisp/minibuffer.el.
63 ;;; Todo:
65 ;; - for M-x, cycle-sort commands that have no key binding first.
66 ;; - Make things like icomplete-mode or lightning-completion work with
67 ;; completion-in-region-mode.
68 ;; - extend `metadata':
69 ;; - quoting/unquoting (so we can complete files names with envvars
70 ;; and backslashes, and all-completion can list names without
71 ;; quoting backslashes and dollars).
72 ;; - indicate how to turn all-completion's output into
73 ;; try-completion's output: e.g. completion-ignored-extensions.
74 ;; maybe that could be merged with the "quote" operation above.
75 ;; - indicate that `all-completions' doesn't do prefix-completion
76 ;; but just returns some list that relates in some other way to
77 ;; the provided string (as is the case in filecache.el), in which
78 ;; case partial-completion (for example) doesn't make any sense
79 ;; and neither does the completions-first-difference highlight.
80 ;; - indicate how to display the completions in *Completions* (turn
81 ;; \n into something else, add special boundaries between
82 ;; completions). E.g. when completing from the kill-ring.
84 ;; - case-sensitivity currently confuses two issues:
85 ;; - whether or not a particular completion table should be case-sensitive
86 ;; (i.e. whether strings that differ only by case are semantically
87 ;; equivalent)
88 ;; - whether the user wants completion to pay attention to case.
89 ;; e.g. we may want to make it possible for the user to say "first try
90 ;; completion case-sensitively, and if that fails, try to ignore case".
92 ;; - add support for ** to pcm.
93 ;; - Add vc-file-name-completion-table to read-file-name-internal.
94 ;; - A feature like completing-help.el.
96 ;;; Code:
98 (eval-when-compile (require 'cl))
100 ;;; Completion table manipulation
102 ;; New completion-table operation.
