But of course, large parts of it were due to semantic usage. You asked how
it can fit C coding, this is my answer.

Uhh, this *is* intellisense. At least as long as you regard "intellisense"
as a generic description and not trademarked name by MSFT. I wrote it
because the existing completion popups for semantic were not close enonugh
to the original IntelliSense, or rather, diverged in ways that seriously
hindered their usefulness.
