Feature Request: IntelliSense/ tab completion #18

Open aidedinertial opened 4 years ago

aidedinertial commented 4 years ago

Is it possible to implement tab completion "IntelliSense" for the editor and/or terminal?

For instance

>> my_struct.a = 10;
>> my_struct.b = 20;

Now when I type my_struct.<Tab> I would like it to show me options a and b.

I don't plan on doing anything with the editor. As for the terminal, that's a bit out of scope and more importantly I am not sure if it can be implemented with the current VS Code API as it is quite limited. Maybe if using a pseudo-terminal instead of a terminal but even this way I am not sure if it is feasible.
