Currently only 'Right' leads to autocomplete accept. Should be both 'Right' and 'End'.

In XCode "end" cancels autocomplete. What autocomplete are you basing this functionality off of? MS Word?

(In reply to comment #2) > In XCode "end" cancels autocomplete. What autocomplete are you basing this > functionality off of? MS Word? On non-Mac OS-based systems (Linux, Windows), "End" is moving cursor to the end of the edit field. It sounds much more intuitive to use "End" for auto-complete accept rather than "Right" arrow on these platforms. I could make this action platform-specific, but then decided to keep it simple. On a more general topic, non-popup-based autocomplete is pretty unique to XCode and I don't think many web developers find it useful. (much more are familiar with Eclipse and Visual Studio). So I am thinking of filing a bug to support popup-based autocomplete.

Comment on attachment 33163 [details] patch Sometimes space accepts completions too, but I think that isn't as comon. (I never used End before.)
