Hi there,
Just playing with the R console mode. It's nice, so thanks to the writers!
I often want to edit collections (R lists), and it would be nice if tabbing inside a collection had the action of moving the selection to the next item in the list.
Would it be possible to write a command (to hard for a snippet, I think) which takes over the tab key when there is no snippet bound to it, and detects if the user is in a c(x,y,..) structure, and selects the next item in the list?
So if the cursor is in item 1 like this
a = c(1|11,222)
Then hitting tab would move to highlight all of item 2. Preferably hitting shift-tab would move to the next previous item, or in front of the collection if already at the head.
PS: One thing that keeps me in R, is the useful last command function (like in tcsh, hitting "up" and "down" scrolls through a command history, replacing the current line. Is it possible to scan the doc, make a list of lines, and just give this as a drop down menu when up is hit hit?
