Personally, I liked your original solution the best. I WILL be using this once it is completed, and would prefer to have this done in real time as scite does it. It would make sense to have a semantic completion, like there is currently in geany and a general completion, which would be a list of all words in the document. It's just my opinon, but it would be nice to tap into either list when needed.
Either way its implemented my hope is that the list of all words will be generated on demand, without any delays.
Thanks, Bryan

Ok, so you want to merge the lists for auto-completion. I think when we do this, we do need to pre-generate and cache the list of words of the current file as generating the list would probably too heavy for every keystroke, even if only enabled by a pref.
Yes, I wonder how SciTE does it. Maybe every e.g. 5 seconds, if idle, and the document has been modified, it could regenerate the list.
Yo, maybe, Though I'd say generating the list on document save would be enough, similar to the tags update. But as I said, I don't mind much about this as I won't use this feature at all (probably :D).
Maybe it's even possible to always generate the list live, on demand. But this just needs testing, once someone has implemented it.
