oh... I taught smalltalk for 3 years, using Pharo every lesson. During those years, I didn't met any single student that didn't tried to press enter the first N times to get a completion. And every time the student complained, until I repeated (often several times) that they should use tab instead. And every time they make the same question "why is not like in [put your favorite IDE here]?"... still today, I do not have an answer, that's why I think is better not to provoke the question :) cheers, Esteban On Apr 7, 2013, at 2:03 PM, Ben Coman <btc@openInWorld.com> wrote:
Sounds like a good classroom assignment for a class incorporating Usability Testing :)

I still think useEnterToAccept has to be true I sustain the idea of lower the entry level for the newcomers, instead supporting as default the use-workflow of power users (they have a settings browser there). We took this decision last year and I think it was a good one... not that we cannot change, but I would stick with it for now. I think the current completion functionality has some other problems that makes it sometimes uncomfortable to use...

If everybody likes it, maybe we should consider putting this configuration as default, no ?
yes but first I would like to see the difference because I do not like it :)

would it be possible to get a couple of settings that you use?
NECPreferences enabled: true; caseSensitive: true; expandPrefixes: true; useEnterToAccept: false; smartCharacters: true; smartCharactersWithDoubleSpace: '[]{}'; spaceAfterCompletion: false; popupAutomaticDelay: 100.
