Sure it's possible. Similar arrangements have been implemented in other packages that interface with flx
. However, since flx
does not expose functions for working on collections, what do you want us to do?
It's specifically the use of projectile-completing-read
, are you saying that support would need to be implemented there rather than in flx
? I had a look at their code and I can't see how it would be possible to do it there, they are just using standard ido
and I had thought that flx-ido
was intercepting those calls. I would expect that whatever hook is replacing ido
with flx-ido
would be able to do this bypass.
You say you don't work with collections, but don't you take some kind a collection as input?
@fommil wait, if you're talking about flx-ido
then is the variable flx-ido-limit
not enough? Limiting by number of candidates rather than input characters seems more correct.
are you sure about that? Typo maybe?
flx-ido-threshold
... ok! I'll try that on Monday
Sorry about that. I'm traveling and mostly posting from memory.
ok, this does actually help things... thanks!
I have some huge completion tables, and I don't want to be completing until I hit N (probably 3 or 4) characters when there are more than M (probably 50,000) total candidates. Is that possible?
