Quick Bits : Hippie Completion on NetBeans
posted Sunday, 3 April 2005
Hippie
Completion (or as it is sometimes referred to as Hippie Expansion) is a
feature that apparently just made it into Eclipse
|
|
and has been in
NetBeans for
some time and is also found in the Java Studio products. Tor Norbye's
blog mentioned it. Basically, hippie completion is
an editor features which automatically completes the word your typing
for you when you press a keybinding. Say you start to type
"import" and you type "im" and hit the keybinding - it will fill in
"import". In NetBeans it is bound to Ctrl-K except on the Mac
where it is Command-K. Try it.
