-The class auto-completion window will pop up and display the list of class names which begin with the string `<code>LI</code>'. So, you can imaging the auto-completion as a search for class names using the characters you type followed by a wild card character (*). The first item of the list will be selected. You can select a class name from the list by double-clicking a name in the list or by using the keyboard <code>Up</code> and <code>Down</code> buttons to navigate the list, then pressing <code>Enter</code> to select a highlighted class name.

+The class auto-completion window will pop up and display the list of class names which begin with the string `<code>LI</code>'. So, you can imaging the auto-completion as a search for class names using the characters you type followed by a wild card character, the asterisk (`*'). Of course, you don't have to put the asterisk at the end, it's always there by implication. Once you've triggered the auto-completion, you can however use the wild card character in the middle of a string, like this:
+<code>
+    a_variable_name: LI*R
+</code> 
+which would list all class names starting with `<code>LI</code>' and containing the character `<code>R</code>' appearing at some point after the `<code>LI</code>'.
+
+When the list appears, the first list item will be selected. You can select a class name from the list by double-clicking a name in the list or by using the keyboard <code>Up</code> and <code>Down</code> buttons to navigate the list, then pressing <code>Enter</code> to select a highlighted class name.

+===Auto-completion list display options===
 
 At the bottom of the auto-completion window you will find a row of icons labeled "Options:". These icons help you control which choices are presented to you and the format of their presentation. 
 
 Each icon can be toggled between an "up" position and a "down" position by clicking on it. You can also toggle the option icons up and down by using the function keys <code>F1</code> through <code>F7</code>.

 Stable attributes are really stable ''detachable'' attributes, as adding the concept of stability is meaningful only for detachable attributes. Declaring a detachable attribute as stable, means that it behaves like a detachable attribute except that its assignment rules mimic those of attached attributes. In other words, a stable attribute can never be the target of an assignment in which the source is <code>Void</code> or a detachable type.
