It would be cool if PureBasic used an Auto complete. Like if you started to type "S" then you would see a dropdown list where you can select things like StartDrawing() or ScreenOutput(), etc.

Yeeeess.
I love this.
It's very good for beginners or other users.
My english is not really good for this i must always copy and past commands of help file or use of other ways.

)

I like this.
Very users need to this feature ( beginners, unenglish languages, fast programmers and ..... )
freak we can enable or disable that by one option in PB
.
Users can enable this helper or disable that.

This would be very nice! Delphi and RealBasic both have it but I would put it low on the priority list. There are many other things I'd like to see Fred working on first, IMHO.

Hmm, fred cant work on the auto-complete (unless he is in charge of VD, which I think he isnt). Fred works on the compiler, while other people works on IDE's and Dialog Designers. the code editor authors would be the one putting in the auto-complete..

it doesn't have to be a drop down it can be a inserted words that you can type over and it changes as you type it in and eventally will be the one you want

If you want autocomplete, download jaPBe.
Thanks GPI.

It would also be cool if it did things like if you typed "If" then it would put "endif" on the next line, or Structure end structure, procedure-endprocedure, etc.

jaPBe does this already, check the options/prefs.

There was a time when this was in my personal top ten list. But the day after jaPBe included it I changed my mind. This really gets annoying; thank god it's an option
