Hi

It would be nice if Kate's autocompletion could also use words within the filename of the opened file for autocomplete suggestions.

Please explain in more detail what you mean. Show a few examples if possible

Comment 2 Dominik Haumann 2012-10-25 18:59:54 UTC

Interestingly, this is available via the new Projects plugin in KDE 4.10. There ctags is used to create an index of the project files, so it works across files.

I have a lots of text files with longer file names on my computer.

When I edit such a file it would be more comfortable when autocompletion may use the words within the filename as a resource for autocomplete suggestions.

I've already described this feature request in 2012, but nothing's happened since.
