I've been bouncing back and forth between Vim and Emacs for some time, and
lately I've been trying to reconcile the abilities of one with the other.
Specifically, I'm wondering if there is something in Emacs analogous to the
following Vim capabilities.

1) Omni-completion.  Here, if you're happily typing something and come
across a name, function call, etc, that you have typed before, in Vim you
can press Ctrl+N to see what can go with what you've typed so far.
Moreover, in many cases, it does this intelligently, taking syntax into
account.
2) Redo-last-change.  In Vim, if you make a change, pressing "." will make
the change again.  Is there something analogous in Emacs, aside from
defining a macro?

Thanks!
