Emacs 下安装auto complete

AutoComplete，自动完成工具，会像VS里一样，弹出一个列表框让你去选择。

安装方法：

User Manual http://cx4a.org/software/auto-complete/manual.html#Installation_Script

Type M-x load-file RET in the running Emacs or newly launched Emacs. Note that if you want to upgrade auto-complete-mode, you have to install in a newly launched Emacs with -q option. Then input a file name to load which is a path string with adding /etc/install.el to the package directory. For example, if the package directory is ~/tmp/auto-complete-1.2, the file name will be ~/tmp/auto-complete-1.2/etc/install.el.

Then input a directory where Auto Complete will be installed. You need to add a directory to load-path later if load-path doesn't include the directory. The directory is to be ~/.emacs.d by default.

Finally type RET to start installation. After installation, you may see the following buffer and follow instructions to edit .emacs.

简要来说：

1.打开emacs，M-x load-file RET，找到/etc/install.el。默认安装到~/.emacs.d。

  如果安装成功，显示

Successfully installed!

Add the following code to your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d")    ; This may not be appeared if you have already added.
(add-to-list 'ac-dictionary-directories "~/.emacs.d/ac-dict")
(require 'auto-complete-config)
(ac-config-default)

2. 在.emacs中加入：

;;for AutoComplete
(add-to-list 'load-path "E:/emacs24.2/.emacs.d") ;; add AutoComplete dir
(require 'auto-complete-config)
(add-to-list 'ac-dictionary-directories "E:/emacs24.2/.emacs.d/ac-dict") ;; add dir for directories for languages
(ac-config-default)
(define-key ac-mode-map (kbd "TAB") 'auto-complete)             ;; comflict with windows "Alt+TAB", so use TAB instead

PS：

之前尝试过一种 .emacs的配置不成功，AutoComplete 不能识别出python语言，按TAB也不会自动补全python中相应的函数，而只会补全之前文本里出现过的单词。

究其原因，是因为没有配置函数的字典（ac-dict），即这句话：

(add-to-list 'ac-dictionary-directories "E:/emacs24.2/.emacs.d/ac-dict")

加上这句以后，字典的路径被加上了，AutoComplete就能识别出是什么语言，并相应地补全
