merlin autocomplete : "int" at the end of the line

[Vu~ Ngo.c San]

Hello

I'm trying the combination tuareg+merlin+ocp-indent to work nicely in my
emacs. I'm puzzled by this behavior:
suppose you end your line with "in" (which is quite common, right ?) and
then type "return":
The "in" has been autocompleted to "int".

This can't be a default behavior; what do I do wrong ?
Following
https://github.com/realworldocaml/book/wiki/Installation-Instructions,
have in my .emacs:
(setq merlin-use-auto-complete-mode t)

regards

That's just auto-complete default behavior, which you can customize (
http://cx4a.org/software/auto-complete/ ).

The current beta of merlin (which you have if you are using 4.02 on
opam) allows you to (setq merlin-use-auto-complete 'easy) to override
defaults.
See
https://github.com/the-lambda-church/merlin/blob/a015e9aaca6ce997a835c152051d0611885c38dd/emacs/merlin.el#L1918
for the corresponding settings.

I currently use opam with 4.01.0 (= system)

do you suggest to change "return" to some other key for autocompletion ?
I fact I don't mind using "return", except in few cases, and "in" is one
of them. Can one impose such exceptions ?

Try loading this file in emacs http://yawdp.com/~def/merlin-keywords.el
After that, if you (add-to-list 'ac-sources 'merlin-ac-source-keywords)
it will also lists ocaml keywords in completion, so in should take
precedence over int.

If you think this help, we may integrate something similar in next release.
