Hello,

I was wandering if there was a way to suggest a function prediction feature within processing. For example, if I am calling the ellipse() function and I type ell it will predict what I am typing and fill in the word ellipse for me. I think it would help with time efficiency!

Thank you for your time,  
Justin S. Miller
