Summary: Intellisense/Auto Code Completion?

Initial Comment:
Would it be possible to incorporate a similar feature
as Visual Basic's Intellisense code completion? I
believe there is a product available in open source
form as a plug-in for the http://jedit.sourceforge.net
editor.

The plug-in is called CodeAid for the Java language.
It can be found here:
http://plugins.jedit.org/plugins/CodeAid
Could this pre-existing code/methodology be
incorporated into SciTE?

I've tried the word completion within SciTE, and its
very good. However, it would be very helpful to be
able to complete methods and properties that are
outside the document I'm currently using. And, that
don't depend on me having typed them before hand, for
them to be accessible as a list.

Aside from that request, thanks for a wonderful
product. I've determined to use SciTE as my editor
for learning how to program.

These are called abbreviations in SciTE and are implemented in SciTE, not
in Scintilla. If you want this in Notepad++ then its the Notepad++
developers that should be told.

Message:
I would like the kind of code completion where, (for Notepad++ which uses
this component), when I am editing an NSIS file and I type ${If} I get
${If}
${Else}
${EndIf}

or if I am editing C++, and I type do I get
do {
} while ();

and if I type for I get
for (;;) {
}


I think you get the idea.
and since different people have different indenting styles, these
substitutions should probably be in a file, one for each file extension
type being edited. If this is the wrong place for this and this belongs in
Notepad++, please tell me.

This feature is already available and is controlled by the
api property. if this is set then the Complete symbol
command should become available and calltips should appear.
