Autofill function for already existing variable names in the script

What inspired this wish list request? 

Variables are used in scripts. Currently the scripter has always write each variable name in to the script.

 

What is the improvement you would like to see? 

It would be better if there is an autofill function, which suggests the scripter at the first letters of the variable name a list of variable names already existing in the script.

 

 

Why is this idea important? 

It's important to reduce the time for scripting and have more time for solving problems :-).

same for column names.

Same for auto-suggestions for built-in functions and messages (which how up after Ctrl + Space)

- they could show up automatically after 2-3 matching characters.
