The suggestion list is somehow much better now in suggesting the right thing. Often it suggests something which I have written just before, but it does not show in the list that the suggestion also includes whitespace characters.
e.g. I have written somewhere "x += [tab][tab]m_somevar", when VAX suggests the next time m_somevar, the list shows only "m_somevar" but selecting it, inserts also the tabs.
This behaviour is a bit unexpected, autotext shows whitespace chars, suggestion lists not.
Single spaces appear in suggested bits of code, albeit typically in a proportional font. They are tough to see, as they are in Autotext. You assume VA X does the right thing.
Tabs are converted to single spaces in suggested bits whereas they are converted to sequences of spaces in Autotext. Maybe four?
We will consider expanding tabs in suggested bits. We like consistency.
