Does Quick Reference work?

Hi 

Does Quick Reference work?  I read p.24 of the manual several times: "select
a keyword and move the mouse pointer over the selection.  A tooltip with
a short description of the keyword should appear".  Hm.  Not for me.  By
'select', I'm assuming that if I double-click on a keyword, that should
'select' it.  True?

Thanks

Right, try 

print "Hello World";

Double Click 'print' and move the mouse cursor over it, remain little and
then you'll see the QuickReference.

Ah, thanks.  That does work; the trick is to leave double-click, and then
wait at least a second fo the QuickReference to appear.

But, the feature only seems to work from some verbs.  For instance, in the
same program, QuickReference works for 'open' and 'print', but not for 'foreach'
and 'while'.  Hm.  Only the words Epic shows in red seem to have QuickReference.
What's up with that?

Also, does Epic support command completion (as I've used with our IDE tools)?

Thanks!

Colur 'red' is tricky, cause it's your own settings. Better would be to
have which Syntax-Words are highlighted, e.g. LITERAL1, KEYWORD1, etc. (in
Preferences).

Both obviously not implemented. But feel free to open a RFE and then lets
see, what will happen.
