package completion

// Completion in Elvish is organized around the concept of "completers",
// functions that take the current AST Node (the Node that the cursor is at,
// always a leaf in the AST) and an eval.Evaler and returns a specification for
// the completion (a complSpec) -- a list of completion candidates, and which
// part of the source code they can **replace**. When completion is requested,
// the editor calls each completer; it is up to the completer to decide whether
// they apply to the current context. As soon as one completer returns results,
// the remaining completers are not tried.
//
// As an example instance, if the user writes the following and presses Tab:
//
// echo $p
//
// assuming that only the builtin variables $paths, $pid and $pwd are viable
// candidates, one of the completers -- the variable completer -- will return a
// complSpec that means "any of paths, pid and pwd can replace the 'p' in the
// source code".
//
// Note that the "replace" part in the semantics of complSpec is important: in
// the default setting of prefix matching, it might be easier to define
// complSpec in such a way that completers say "any of aths, id and wd can be
// appended to the 'p' in the source code". However, this is not flexible enough
// for alternative matching mechanism like substring matching or subsequence
// matching, where the "seed" of completion (here, p) may not be a prefix of the
// candidates.
//
// There is one completer that deserves more attention than others, the
// completer for arguments. Unlike other completers, it delegates most of its
// work to argument completers. See the comment in arg_completers.go for
// details.
