Not sure to understand... Linenoise* has completion hooks.
Completion is something done in the app, not readline/linenoise.
Only the app has the context to know what to complete the text with.
But perhaps I'm missing something? --DD

I missed that. There is a hook for it. Thank you. Apologies.
I just got the first pass of readline working in windows with psql!!
it's "rough" right now, I will have to work through a bunch of assumptions...
but it's WORKING! (at least in utf8)... Tons of testing, and some of this code has not
been compiled for Windows in 17yrs. I might need to find one of the geniuses who
understands the inner workings of psqlscanslash...
