Automatic auto-complete lists without requiring the respective hotkey?

[Ber]

I am currently running a version of SciTE-Ru with a decent number of
features that I haven't found yet in any other text editor.

My favorite feature (which looks to be in default SciTE also) is that
it generates an autocomplete list based upon words already typed
within the current document. On top of that (something that I didn't
see in the default SciTE), it also automatically compares your current
word with the autocomplete list, without need for the hotkey Ctrl
+Enter.

I recently discovered that SciTE also allows autocompletion for pre-
listed API, via the .api files. I was a bit surprised, however, when
I found that this autocompletion feature is:
1) Activated by a separate hotkey
2) Not automatically referenced when typing (the autocomplete list
doesn't pop up unless I manually activate it via pressing Ctrl+I)

What I would really like is to be able to bring up the API
autocomplete list automatically as well. Since the two lists seem to
be stored separately, perhaps a way to merge them together will
accomplish what I want without any other changes. In fact, I would
prefer a way to merge them together, if possible.

My relevant settings (I think):
autocompleteword.automatic=1
autocompleteword.incremental=1 # appears to be unique to SciTE-Ru
autocomplete.*.ignorecase=1
calltip.*.ignorecase=1

Thanks!

Thank you for good assessment.

It works with a script AutocompleteObject.lua for Lua, VBScript,
Jscript and CSS.
For other languages, it must be set independently.
Good setting you can offer to add to SciTE-Ru.

Thank you for pointing this out! I will look into the Lua script and
see what I can change around to fit my needs.

Forgive me, I wasn't sure if this feature was implemented in default
SciTE and just not enabled by the default user preferences.
I will be sure to direct any further questions on this topic to the
SciTE-Ru board.

Thanks again!
