Suggestion: auto-correct global variables between files #21

Maybe I'm not using the best setup – I moved all my global vars into a master.ink. Would be nice if, when editing an include of the master, that auto-correct knows the names of the global variables.

Good idea!

Anyone interested in having a try at working on this, it has two requirements:

Setting up a custom Ace completer (see #29 for more information on how to do this)
Gathering a list of global variables. Currently we don't do this - we only gather knot, stitch, gather and choice names based on the Ace syntax parser. But you could extend it - take a look at inkFileSymbols.js

This can be closed now that #87 is merged.
