Subject: bug#47665: elisp-completion-at-point doesn't work when no characters typed
Date: Fri, 9 Apr 2021 02:53:29 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ba77505c-ba8c-6930-ef1c-93d469b8d2e9@yandex.ru> (raw)
X-Debbugs-CC: Stefan Monnier <monnier@IRO.UMontreal.CA>
Example:
(|)
press C-M-i -> nothing
(a|)
press C-M-i -> lots of completions
That's not very conducive to API exploration via completion.
Further, it triggers a problem when used with company: if I initiate
completion when prefix is empty, it switches to the dabbrev-code
backend. Then, even after I type some chars, the same backend continues
to be used. Not company-capf, which I would want.
This patch seems to fix it:
diff --git a/lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el b/lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el
index 8ade718640..203712f45d 100644

But I'm not sure why those elements were there in the first place.
