Hi,
I made a discovery just now because I was writing some JAWS code to examine 
what was popping up in some Eclipse windows. This is about code completion.

As you are typing along in a Java program and you want to get a list of code 
completion choices, do this.

1. type part of a class, such as System, then a period.

2. As soon as you press the period key, immediately press the Tab key. That 
puts you in a list of choices.

3. Pick a choice and press Enter.

4. press the period key again, then Tab again.

5. Pick a choice.

I'm sure you get the pattern by now.

There's more to discover, such as what happens when you hit Control + Space and 
Control + Shift + Space, but I haven't figured out that yet.

Thanks.

Jim
