I can’t speak for the specific patch, but tab completion of proc args for \df, \ef and friends has long been a desired feature of mine, particularly when you are dealing with functions with huge numbers of arguments and the same name which I have (sadly) come across many times in the wild.

If someone can get this working against this current patch, that would be great, but I suspect it will require some macro-jiggering in tab-complete.c and possibly more, so yeah, could be something to add to the todo list.

Cheers,
Greg
