29 | ;; Loading this package implements a more fine-grained minibuffer |
30 | ;; completion feedback scheme. Prospective completions are concisely | |
31 | ;; indicated within the minibuffer itself, with each successive | |
32 | ;; keystroke. | |
33 | ||
5e537651 | 34 | ;; See `icomplete-completions' docstring for a description of the |
b578f267 EN |
35 | ;; icomplete display format. |
36 | ||
37 | ;; See the `icomplete-minibuffer-setup-hook' docstring for a means to | |
38 | ;; customize icomplete setup for interoperation with other | |
39 | ;; minibuffer-oriented packages. | |
40 | ||

41 | ;; To activate icomplete mode, load the package and use the |
42 | ;; `icomplete-mode' function. You can subsequently deactivate it by | |
43 | ;; invoking the function icomplete-mode with a negative prefix-arg | |
44 | ;; (C-U -1 ESC-x icomplete-mode). Also, you can prevent activation of | |
45 | ;; the mode during package load by first setting the variable | |
46 | ;; `icomplete-mode' to nil. Icompletion can be enabled any time after | |
47 | ;; the package is loaded by invoking icomplete-mode without a prefix | |
48 | ;; arg. | |

50 | ;; Thanks to everyone for their suggestions for refinements of this |
51 | ;; package. I particularly have to credit Michael Cook, who | |
52 | ;; implemented an incremental completion style in his 'iswitch' | |
53 | ;; functions that served as a model for icomplete. Some other | |
5e537651 | 54 | ;; contributors: Noah Friedman (restructuring as minor mode), Colin |
1be5a284 | 55 | ;; Rafferty (lemacs reconciliation), Lars Lindberg, RMS, and others. |
