    Okay. The Eclipse fanboys will say that doesn't complete methods and such since it's just textual, but dabbrev works well in practice, and is a wonderful thing for all kinds of documents. btw, one nice trick I use for indent-or-complete commands is to complete on the second "TAB" when the line hasn't moved, rather than when at end-of-word, like so (pseudocode): 
    (defun my-indent-or-complete ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((pos (point)))
    (indent-command)
    (when (and (= pos (point))
           (eq last-command 'my-indent-or-complete))
      (complete-command))))

        Well, I'd have to drop $30 to read it, but I think I understand what it's doing. I actually use my Sepia for perl-with-completion, so I'll look at putting something similar in that. I've remved the dependency on EPL in my local copy, and just need to gather the tuits to make a release...
