I mean that the editor "knows" the name of the functions you are typing.
For example, if you have the following function:
              gint gtk_signal_connect(GtkObject * widget, const gchar * 
signal, GtkSignalFunc callback, gpointer user_data);
when you begin typing this function the editor reply to you by showing you 
the possible names that begins with gtk_signal_* suffix and when you have 
completed typing the function, the editor shows you the function arguments 
to pass in.

Sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand what I mean.
Thank you for your interest.
