Autocompletion and auto-suggestions in cli?

[Animeshz]

Is it a bug or intentional, that web-based kalk do changes sqrt integral sum etc and also closes the parenthesis itself while cli doesn't?

The cli version does this as well, but you have to press tab. At the time at least, I couldn't find a way to do it automatically with the rust crate used to deal with cli input/output (rustyline), so implementing this may be difficult. It would be really nice though.

Oh alright! I'm not sure about the internals, but I guess you could use https://crates.io/crates/console for listening to live key-presses, simplest example is here, this can either detect if enter is pressed or any char by matching with Key::Enter and Key::Char(char) respectively.

Edit: if some special keyword appear you can clear_chars for the length and write those special characters or autocomplete the braces.

Hmm might be doable somehow if it integrates well with rustyline. Will have to poke around and see.
