People,
I have a version you can test here:
https://github.com/jeanlaroche/gnucash.git , fix_autocompletion branch.
A couple notes:
- I worked off of maint, which I shouldn't have since this is probably a
new feature. I'll fix that eventually.
- The feature is fully functional, as far as I can tell.
- I added an option in the preferences to use type-ahead-search
(register), but at this point, it's not working right (it does not hold,
so I must be missing some code).
- I tested on accounts with large number of accounts (> 8000), and as
far as I can tell it works OK. When you start typing there are
potentially thousands of matching accounts but I only display the first
30 to avoid making the UI horribly sluggish, I think that's a good
compromise.
Give that a shot and let me know what you think. The code is not ready
for a PR as I still have lots of comments that would need to go.
PREFERENCES:
If someone can point me in the right direction for preferences, it would
be great. I essentially replicated the code for "Enter moves to blank
transaction" (by searching all references of the defines for that pref,
and adding the ones needed for the new option) but I must be missing
something because the code says the preference key is invalid. The new
option shows in the preferences, but the rest isn't working.

Jean,
That patch was for register2 which is stalled, it has no bearing on the
current version.

I believe, Bob will faster understand, what is happening there.
