Some months ago I wrote<\/a> about the new features available in Cantor from KDE 4.13 release. But I did not write about a new nice feature available in that release too – so let’s see the new code completion in Cantor script editor!<\/p>\n

I coded a default syntax highlighting to each backend in script editor. Script editor is based on KatePart\/KTextEditor<\/a>, a great piece of code from KDE libs used in several KDE softwares like KWrite, Kate, Kile, KDevelop, and more.<\/p>\n

The Kate guys released a new feature in KDE 4.13 release: an improved code completion<\/a> for all languages supported by KTextEditor. It use the same XML file to syntax highlighting from each language to provide this new code completion.<\/p>\n

As I coded the default syntax highlighting, the code completion for the script editor was enabled as default too. Amazing!<\/p>\n

So, let’s see some pictures about this feature:<\/p>\n

\"code-completion-scilab-cantor\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Code completion in Scilab<\/em><\/p>\n

This figure we use code completion to write a plot<\/em> command in script editor from Scilab backend.<\/p>\n

\n\"code-completion-maxima-cantor\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Code completion in Maxima<\/em><\/p>\n

In Maxima backend we can see the code completion working not only to the commands with initial string typed: for example, contour_plot<\/em> is suggested in the figure.<\/p>\n

This new code completion is available to all backends that have the script editor plugin implemented. To use it you just type Ctrl+Space in the editor.<\/p>\n

There are some improvements to this feature to be implemented in the future. For example, it would be interesting load the functions to modules\/packages imported in the editor – for example, in Python I can use import numpy<\/em> and the numpy functions could be available in code completion too. The variables in the Cantor workspace could be available in the script editor too.<\/p>\n

But it is work to the future. For now, you can have fun with this new code completion., and thanks for all Kate developers<\/a> for this nice feature!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
