Re: [Pharo-project] Issue 10219: Completion: enter on accept awkwardness

by Johan Brichau

I'm fine with the fact that Pharo decides to put that as a default (because I can change it). But the preferences are fundamentally flawed: if I disable useEnterToAccept then I cannot even use <tab> instead. I should also disable the <tab> as the completion of common prefixes. The change I attached to my email demonstrates that this should not be the case.
