Bug 72712 – app-emacs/python-mode-4.63 -- wrong installation of pycomplete.py

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nick Savchenko 2004-11-28 05:29:28 UTC]

pycomplete is a part of python-mode, that provides some completiotion functionality for python code. It's implementation consists of 2 files -- elisp file and python file. Python file (pycomplete.py) must be loaded by pymacs, and in order to be loaded by pymacs it must be installed somewhere in $PYTHONPATH (if it's installed somewhere else python will be unable to find it). The current ebuild installs pycomplete.py in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp. Also, the site-file of python-mode must have lower priority than pymacs' one, because pymacs is needed to load pycomplete.

patch for the site-file of python-mode

I've added the configuration for doctest-mode and pycomplete to python-mode's
site-file.

If you want to try the completition functionality do the following:
1. Open some python file. Change mode to python-mode.
2. Enter such code
import string
sting.stri
3. Press M-TAB (or M-x py-complete) and see what happens.

Unfortunaly, pycomplete cannot show the list of possible completitions so far. If more than one variant of completition exist pycomplete does nothing.

Thanks. I hadn't tested completion part when I committed it.
I'll test and commit it tomorrow.

Thanks, veryfied and added to CVS. The instruction to 
perform py-completion helped me test your patch. 
I really appreciate it :)
