Explicitly hide "Contacting host" message when backend has responded #61

Closed purcell closed 9 years ago

purcell commented 9 years ago

When there is no Robe completion for the word at point, the existing code leaves the "Contacting host ..." message in the echo area, leading the user to assume Emacs is still busy. This small patch explicitly clears that message when the backend has responded.

Thank you. But shouldn't we simply pass SILENT to url-retrieve-synchronously?

Then it won't show the diagnostics like that at all.

On second thought, Robe is quite slow sometimes, and these messages are a poor man's activity indicator.

Yeah, that's kinda what I figured too.
