Is there a mode for Emacs that gives hints on function arguments? For instance, I type int result = function( and immediatly after '(' is typed, Emacs shows in a small window: int function(int x, int y, int z) This way (provided that the arguments' names are chosen well) I can avoid looking into a manual most of the time. So is there anything similar to what I've described? Such a mode would be very helpful when writing say GTK+ code. Paul
