This should be checked by default do doubt.
It annoys a lot of people (including me). Controversial features that
do magic things should be off by default.
5. press tab (it inserts another tab in addition to the one that was
already there and places the cursor two tabs from the start of the
line)
It sounds like you're expecting the Tab key behavior to be "auto-
indent the current line" instead of "insert a tab". There's a pref for
that — the "Tab indents:" pop-up in the Indentation pref pane.
If you have the following methods
myAssert1
myAssert2
myAssert3
myAssert4
myHelloWorld
... and let's say that goes on for quite a bit more so its not
convenient to choose it from the list.
Then you are forced type the whole name! Even if have typed "MyA" -
XCode doesn't fill in the rest up to "myAssert".
I don't see this. If I type "[NSArray arr" it suggests "array", then I
hit Tab and "array" is entered, then I press "W" and it suggests
"WithArray:" and so forth. I'm hitting tab a few more times than what
you'd like, but it's pretty close.
BTW, you might want to try out the TextMate editor, which is hyper-
configurable and has a lot of power-user editing features. The
disadvantage is that it's not integrated with the compiler so it
doesn't understand the exact syntax of the code and can't be as smart
about things like autocomplete.
