[RkWard-devel] Feature Request: auto completion

looks like a fairly nice idea. Anyway, the first step to realizing that sort 
of functionality will be to copy the information about functions and their 
arguments to rkward space. That is, rkward will have to learn to represent R 
functions, first (and of course sooner or later it will have to learn how to 
do this, anyway). Once we have that kind of information in rkward, I hope it 
will not be too hard to implement using the kate-part.
This is not realistic for the emergency release (probably to be released on 
Sunday). However, I think there is a reasonable chance to get this into the 
next release after that.

Regards
Thomas
