Is there an IDE custom autocomplete?

[acreis]

Hello!

Is there an IDE custom autocomplete integrated in IDE?

For instance, I would like to type ]ismainfile and get it replaced by CompilerIf #Pb_Compiler_IsMainFile

Strangely autohotkey doesn't work in Purebasic IDE.

Any Ideas?

I am not sure, because I use a lot of autohotkey "hotstrings". And almost all strings work (very) well on all scintilla based text editors including the PB-IDE.
An answer to your question is below. (Upps found out, that it works in this editor as well).
A limitation with the PB 6.10 seems to be the starting char ]. I replaced it with ;
Second limitation is that the IDE acts on some strings very strange compared to notepad2, for example.
My suspicion: The own autocomplete mechanism.

Hint: co --> + Ending Characters i.e. SPACE (Ending Characters are removed)

Code: Select all

:co:;ismainfile::{home}CompilerIf {#}Pb_Compiler_IsMainFile {enter 2}CompilerEndIf {enter}{up 2}{tab}

Works for me!
