When typing in the console: {packageName}:: one then gets a list of items within the package namespace to possibly autocomplete on. Super handy!
Often when I am interactive developing I also want to check the documentation of a package function. So I start typing ? and then {packageName}:: but now the autocompletion does not show up. And when I start typing it as if it "reset" and starts autocompleting again on general items. See the screenshot example below:
Screenshots:
without ?
Correct autocompletion when typing tinytest::test
With ?:
After typing ?tinytest::test it starts autocompletion only based on the word "test" and it wants to autocomplete on the installed package testthat:
My current workaround is for me to type the literal ? function call:
`?`({packageName}::)
Probably the weird syntax of ? is making the autocompletion break.
