Sorry if this is already requested - I searched...

It would be really neat if autocomplete can also list the structured linked list fields....

Code: Select all

Structure generalobject
    type.c
    xpos.w
    ypos.w
    xspd.w
    yspd.w
    trans.w
EndStructure

Global NewList aliens.generalobject()
You type:

Code: Select all

aliens()\
Pressing CTRL+Space shows Autocomplete list with (preferably *ONLY*) the fields for the list.

Hope it makes sense. :D

This is already upcoming in the 4.40 release. You can see it in action if you download the beta.

Look at v4.40 beta 2. This beta seems to already implement what you have requested.
