Description Darin Adler 2002-01-24 23:54:16 UTC 
The Nautilus location bar does auto-completion on a GtkEntry.

The hacks required to do this are a bit yucky. A nice hook for this would
be appreciated. The code in nautilus-location-bar.c has the hacks in it,
in case it's useful to look at that for reference.

This is being done in conjuction with the combobox work. I am making
some progress here.

Final API will probably look like the ideas outlined in msg00054.
Right now I am working on an implementation.

API discussed on gtk-devel-list went in.
