[Eric] Code completion's issue

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hi,

rope completion support has just been implemented. Please get the plug-in via the plug-in 
repository dialog and activate rope completions and calltips on the respective configuration 
pages.

Users of the eric Assistant plug-in please note, that only one extermal completion and calltips 
provider can be activated.

Regards,
Detlev
