** Customization
This module is configured to suit my preferences. Here are some things you may want to change:
* Configure
** Auto-completion
By default, I've disabled auto-completion. This is my preference. I prefer to invoke company when I need it by calling ~company-complete~ manually (typically, bound to =C-SPC= in insert mode). However, some may not share my preference.
*** as-you-type completion
By default, I've disabled auto-completion. This is my preference. I prefer to invoke company when I need it by pressing ~C-SPC~ from insert mode. Some don't like this.
To make it automatic, you need to do two things:
To enable auto-completion you must:
1. Load ~company~,
2. and change ~company-idle-delay~ to a non-nil float (the default is 0.5)
To do this, add the following to your ~modules/private/<username>~ module (remember, ~:private <username>~ needs to be added to init.el):
For example, add the following to your ~modules/private/<username>/config.el~ module:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(require 'company)

** Troubleshooting
* Troubleshooting
If completion isn't working for you, please consider the following before posting a bug report:
+ Different languages will have different dependencies in order for auto-completion to work. Please look for the README.org in that language's respective module for details.
+ If what you are expecting is popup-as-you-type completion (which is disabled by default), see the "Customize" section above; it includes instructions on how to enable this.
+ Certain languages may have extra dependencies in order for auto-completion to work. Please look for that module's README.org for details.
+ Some languages don't have any auto-completion support.
+ Check [[*Customization][Customization]], perhaps what you are expecting is popup-as-you-type completion, which is disabled by default.
