[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Autocompletion plugins support (#1854)

[Denis Feklushkin]

> To be frank, Geany's autocompletion is very stupid and has no language specific understanding (for example name visibilities and scopes or non-top level names), it should not be the trigger for language specific autocompletions, they should replace the Geany autocompletion. I mostly run with autocompletes off because the things Geany offers for C++ completions are usually so irrelevant as to be a distraction.

On the contrary, I like that it works at least a little on virtually any file, regardless of language(?)

And I'm very impressed with the idea that the settings of autocompletion will be in one place, where they are already now. Design of the window can be changed, user settings too, so it's better to be able to transfer lists to this window than draw plugin-own window.
