27 ;;; Commentary:
28
29 ;; Loading this package implements a more fine-grained minibuffer
30 ;; completion feedback scheme. Prospective completions are concisely
31 ;; indicated within the minibuffer itself, with each successive
32 ;; keystroke.
33
34 ;; See `icomplete-completions' docstring for a description of the
35 ;; icomplete display format.
36
37 ;; See the `icomplete-minibuffer-setup-hook' docstring for a means to
38 ;; customize icomplete setup for interoperation with other
39 ;; minibuffer-oriented packages.
40
41 ;; To activate icomplete mode, load the package and use the
42 ;; `icomplete-mode' function. You can subsequently deactivate it by
43 ;; invoking the function icomplete-mode with a negative prefix-arg
44 ;; (C-U -1 ESC-x icomplete-mode). Also, you can prevent activation of
45 ;; the mode during package load by first setting the variable
46 ;; `icomplete-mode' to nil. Icompletion can be enabled any time after
47 ;; the package is loaded by invoking icomplete-mode without a prefix
48 ;; arg.
49
50 ;; Thanks to everyone for their suggestions for refinements of this
51 ;; package. I particularly have to credit Michael Cook, who
52 ;; implemented an incremental completion style in his 'iswitch'
53 ;; functions that served as a model for icomplete. Some other
54 ;; contributors: Noah Friedman (restructuring as minor mode), Colin
55 ;; Rafferty (lemacs reconciliation), Lars Lindberg, RMS, and others.
