Auto-completion program for scripts with support for scripting applications.
BBAutoComplete is a word auto-completion software that seamlessly integrates with scriptable applications. With this software, you don't have to type out long variable and method names anymore. Just start a word, hit a key, and BBAutoComplete will automatically suggest possible completions for you to choose from.
If the software suggests the wrong completion, simply press the key again to cycle through other options. Unlike other auto-completion software, BBAutoComplete eliminates the tedious process of manually teaching the software your frequently used words and phrases. Instead, it scans open documents for possible expansions, and only suggests completions that are relevant to your current task.
BBAutoComplete is particularly useful for programmers, but can also assist with prose writing. Although BBEdit 9 also includes an auto-completion feature, BBAutoComplete provides some benefits that make it a preferred option. BBEdit 9 may overlook potential completions depending on the cursor's location, even if the words are in the same document just a few lines away. In contrast, BBAutoComplete consistently displays the same completions, and prefers words from the same document over words in the dictionary.
BBAutoComplete is also case-sensitive, which narrows down the list of possible completions to the most relevant options. Overall, BBAutoComplete is a handy tool that speeds up the writing process by minimizing the need for manual typing and reducing errors.
