Nicholaj has promised a pycomplete backend for company too. I can recommend company-mode. The documentation for it is not the best unfortunately but its being improved all the time. company-mode even has completion for ispell dictionaries which is nice and also has a semantic back end for talking to cedet so can complete any language semantic can parse. recommended. But I have to say that completion is one of the messiest areas in emacs - many possibilities all reinventing the wheel in some cases. I intend to try pycomplete too. regards, r.
