Subject: completion-styles with increasing level of matching
Date: Mon, 01 Aug 2022 13:05:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <MiW3h5vEuTnVjT5PfuXKgcoizes0dAnpWyKhrb2j5U4PUhQTIqiQZxajhWI1hNjjhuKfDnb-MalGMXe6DF7zUMZy7P-AIOPeg5GL_D-tRrI=@proton.me> (raw)
I am setting up `completion-styles'. Would like to have a system
where a user could switch values according to an increasing level
of matching. From least aggressive to most aggressive. What
would be the most useful transitions?
1. (setq completion-styles '(basic substring))
2. (setq completion-styles '(basic partial-completion))
3. (setq completion-styles '(flex))
4. (setq completion-styles '(initials))
Are `flex' and `initials' considered frequently useful? Which isthe most aggressive from the two?
