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.)
