#9996: Support symbols in GHCi tab completion -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: shachaf | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Milestone: Priority: normal | Version: 7.8.4 Component: GHCi | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Architecture: | Blocked By: Unknown/Multiple | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Right now, when typing e.g. `>` followed by two tabs, GHCi shows every name in scope rather than just names beginning with `>`. It even lists operators as possible completions, but ignores it when you type the beginning of an operator's name. It would be better if it could actually complete every option it shows as a possible completion. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9996 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
