Post Abbreviation in Completion: "Why so serious?"
Hi,

I'm using the latest SVN version (R1514).

Some time ago there was an update to the code completion engine to support abbreviations. In the context of Open Resource I'm happy with it, but somehow in the regular completion list it annoys me if I i.e. want to get "IResourceCollection" and type "IREso" (or "IResourcecol") it only displays abbreviated search results.

I know I could write it in all lowercase but after years being used to caseinsensitive completion it's hard to change :(

I think the best way would be to also display the "normal" resultset after the abbreviation-resultset. And/or make it an option.

I must say I don't like the uppercase matching code - it generally doesn't work for me :)
Time to fix it!

I committed a new abbreviation matching code which is (hopefully) much much smarter than the original.
Testers wanted :)

First impression: Feels goood!
It's now like what I wanted it to be: Defaults to "oldschool" completion and abbreviation kicks in if using only uppercase characters -> nice! n_n
BTW: Thanks for the quick fix!
