Autocompletion in SEE 2

If you like me use SEE for developing Cocoa, there are some nice features.
First: all the Cocoa selectors are in the autocompletion. Really nice. Moreover, if you press autocomplete after a space, autocomleting will match anything in the current document that starts with the word in front of the space including the space. Really cool for "self " (shows you any selector you sent to self, have a try!

That kicks ass! Actual, *usable* autocompletion for Cocoa--imagine that :-)!

The only thing that would make that nicer would be if it could zero in on the selector you're looking for as you continue to type it (sort of like the way the code completion works in Eclipse).

It might also be nice to have completion that could be triggered automatically if I begin a message (e.g. I type "[self ") and then simply pause for a moment.

Excellent work, though--I would *love* to see you guys add more Cocoa/ObjC-related features in the future!

Hmm... this might be a stupid question, but how do I press "autocomplete"? I tried tab, but that doesn't work.

Wooops -- sorry, I found it in the FAQ (Alt+Esc or F5).
