Subject: How should libraries integrate with IDO?
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2017 13:41:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAArVCkRtfOXdxB8=7ddUEKt7jJ07wYn6sios3G4KArTKE0UcPQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

what should a library do that wants to use `completing-read', but
optionally support IDO?
- just call `completing-read' and tell the user to set
`completing-read-function' to `ido-completing-read'?
- provide a library-specific customization option, like
`magit-completing-read-function'?
- use `ido-completing-read' whenever ido.el is loaded?
- or something else?

If this isn't documented yet in the ELisp or IDO manuals, please document
it there.

Thanks,
Philipp
