Word based autocomplete is lost

[rubencaro]

On version 0.1.2

When I start writing a word in a file, usually Code gives me at least code completion for plain text words (see the small 'abc' icon) searching on open files. This works for all kinds of files, and even for Elixir unsaved ('Untitled', not on disk) files. Like this:

This does not work for me on Elixir pre-existing files (i.e. part of an actual project). Like this:

Is it some misconfiguration from my part? Or is it a bug?

Thanks

The same is on my machines too, even after everything is compiled. It appears it cannot find any modules/functions/variables no matter in which context/scope, this same applies on ⌘+click on anything.

I'm on Elixir 1.4, are you too?

[rubencaro]

Yes Elixir 1.4

Hmm i currently can't reproduce this issue:

Could you maybe open up developer tools (via Help) and paste anythings thats looks like an error in here?

I must add that super+click doesn't seem to work for me as well.

I attach you the complete sequence of an example. I expect the word 'expression' to be suggested when I write 'exp', as it is a word that is present in the current file. While I go on writing you can see that some completions are suggested, but not the plain text one. The last one is the output in console. It's the same output repeated several times. Hope it helps !

Hey @rubencaro appearently github doesn't include images send via mail. Could you upload them via the web interface?
Thanks a bunch!

[rubencaro]

Yes, of course! Sorry.

Here they go. In order:

Thanks!

Thanks @rubencaro, seems to be the same issue as #30, will look into it once i get some time!
