Exclude Keywords from Auto-Complete

[Ralph DiMola]

In the edit=>options of the SE there is an option to turn autocomplete
On/Off. There is also edit=>Autocomplete Snippet Manager. I have not used it
but it looks interesting. It may solve your problem with the "alternate"
option?

Subject: Exclude Keywords from Auto-Complete

Hi all. 

I just submitted an enhancement request to create a new global property of
keywords to exclude from the SE Auto-Complete feature. The reason is,
whenever I type "of me" in the SE, I get suggestions for mergeDeploy, and if
I hit tab to reformat the script or to move to the next parameter of an
auto-complete suggestion, it replaces "me" with the first mergeDeploy
suggestion. There are other scenarios I've run into as well. 

Also, I looked in the SE preferences for auto-complete, but did not find an
entry. There is one for Auto Format, but that enables/disables the
auto-indent feature. Hopefully they are not both enabled/disabled by that
one check box.
