Re: Emacs completion matches selection UI

[John Yates]

Try a google search for "yasnippet autocomplete".  Many folk seem to want to use them together.  Not sure why the attempt so often leads to a plea for help.

Perhaps the wrinkle is yasnippet's completion model.  Based on context preceding point yasnippet decides either that a match exists (leading to template expansion and return) or that no match exists  causing responsibility to be passed to a fallback completion handler.

I didn't know.  Can you describe some of the problems w.r.t interaction
between completion and yasnippet?
