<h3>12.4.3: Command name abbreviation</h3>
gri-mode uses command name abbreviations in a non-Unix way in that all
words that compose the command name may be abbreviated (and not only
the word preceding the cursor). For example, one can type in
<p>
<TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%">
<TR>
<TD>
<PRE>
<font color="#82140F">
dr x a`<font color="#82140F"><kbd>M-tab</kbd></font>'
</font></PRE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<p>
and it will expand1 all the words to
<p>
<TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%">
<TR>
<TD>
<PRE>
<font color="#82140F">
draw x axis [at bottom|top|{.y. [cm]} [lower|upper]]
</font></PRE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<p>
This is reminiscent of VMS, which the author was used to when
gri-mode.el was initially created. It's likely that a gri-mode.el
rewritten from scratch wouldn't have this feature since it's not part
of the Unix mindset.
