Feature Request - Ability to set completeopt on MU Auto Toggle #31

Closed tjharman closed 7 years ago

tjharman commented 7 years ago

It would be nice (I think, there are probably good reasons it's not) to have completeopt's settings be toggled for you when MUcompleteAutoOff/On/Toggle is used.

For example (this is bad pseudo code)

let g:mucomplete#CompAutoOn = {add : 'noinsert, noselect'}
let g:mucomplete#CompAutoOff = {remove: 'noinsert,noselect'}

Does this make sense? Is it a good idea, or a stupid one?

By design, µcomplete does not set or change any Vim options, much less global options. So, the short answer is: the user has to do it (through a custom command or mapping). For example:

fun! s:toggle_completeopt()
  if exists('#MUcompleteAuto')
    set completeopt+=noinsert,noselect
  else
   set completeopt-=noinsert,noselect
  endif
endf
nnoremap <silent> coa :<c-u>MUcompleteAutoToggle<cr>:call <sid>toggle_completeopt()<cr>

Note that noinsert is ignored in manual completion (again, by design), except for spelling suggestions.

This makes perfect sense, thank you. And thank you for the .vimrc suggestion, that'll do perfectly.
