2014-02-17Correct parenthesis expansionBjörn Gustavsson
Commit dfb4ec804a099b539c91e5643090d8183885e71c attempted to add a closing parenthesis to the expansion of a funtion of zero arity if there were no other functions with the same name. Unfortunately it would add the closing parenthesis in many cases when there was another function with another name (e.g. to Mod:module_info/0 even though there is a Mod:module_info/1). Correct logic for adding parenthesis and add a test case.
2014-01-09Shell: expand 0-arity functions all the way to closing parenthesisPierre Fenoll
`erl` has tab completion for modules' exported functions but expands only up to the opening paren. This commit closes that opening paren in case the function is of arity zero and there is no other function with the same name. It browses the lists of matches (a 2nd time) for Arity, on complete match and then decides what to append.

2010-01-07Shell tab completion now works for quoted module and function namesUlf Wiger
While quoted atoms in module and function names are not common, they are allowed, and sometimes quite useful. In OTP, they are commonplace in ORBER, and can also be found in XMERL. Tab completion needs to recognize quoted atoms and act accordingly. This patch includes changes in edlin:over_word/1. It should be noted that these changes also affect the 'kill word', 'forward word' and 'backward word' commands in the line editor. The author thinks that the changes are for the better. There are also minor changes in edlin_expand.erl - mainly in regard to the conversion between atoms and strings. Another change is that the list of matches is now sorted, partly to simplify testing, but also because it seems sensible to present the matches that way. A test suite, edlin_expand_SUITE, has been added to the stdlib test suites. (amended 2009-12-18 to actually include the modified files too and again to rename the capitalized test modules for portability.)
