Thread: Problem with autocomplete

When triggering autocomplete on spaces (e.g. empty query window), a
memory damage will be triggered. If ignored, the full keyword listbox
will popup.
Happens with VC6, not gtk.

Apologies for the delay in dealing with this, been way too busy.
Attached is a fix. A buffer in _complete_from_list() wasn't allocaed
with enough space for the terminating NULL. I've fixed a similar issue
in complete_create_command - I wasn't able to trigger it, but anyway.

It really should hapen on gtk as well - most likely just luck that it
didn't corrupt anything needed.

Thanks, patch applied.
