Also note that this feature has been added to Webster and Digital
Librarian.  

For a fun time play, and an educationl experience, hop into Webster and
type a single letter, then hold down the escape key.  It will cycle through all
the words that start with that letter.

Has anyone been able to reproduce this behavior in Edit?
On my system, it seems to complete based on filenames in the current directory,
not keywords, method names or anything else rational.  and even then it
only works sometimes. Do the preferences make a difference?

Webster and Librarian are amusing though.

Is this an implementation of gnu-emacs' abbrev-mode (or M-Tab
completion for known commands)?
Someone should indeed make a list of hidden features available for
those of us who can't get to the documentation.

You can control the expansions in Edit 3.0 with the Utilities->Expert->
Expansions Dictionary command. Why it will still expand some commands
not listed in it is beyond me. Why this isn't documented is also beyond
me since it is extremely useful....

The completion is pretty simple-minded: It will complete to any word which
occurs in the document before the cursor position. You also need to be in
C mode, I believe...
