12.4.4: Variable (and synonym) completion

It's also possible to do `M-tab' completion on gri builtin variable and synonym names while editing a command. Simply type in the leading `.' (dot) or `\' (slash) character and invoke completion with `M-tab'.

For example,


..x`M-tab'

displays a completions buffer listing the possible completions:


..xmargin..                        ..xsize.. 
..xleft..                          ..xright.. 
..xlast..

Typing in an extra `m' will complete to `..xmargin..' and the following help information will be displayed in the minibuffer:


margin to left of axis area. Default is 6 cm.
