Namespace Code Completion Bug - Drops First Period

[swifty162]

When selecting a namespace from the predicted drop-down menu, the initial period is removed from the text. See examples below.

// a table called
.my.table
// typing below results in option for .my and also .my.table
.m
// select .my.table returns
my.table
// likewise typing
.my.ta
// choose .my.table from drop-down returns
my.table

Yes, I have had this issue for a while too, but didn't get around to fix it.

I will document how completions is done here in case you or anyone wants to tackle it

Here is how it works:

1. After every command is sent, the plugin executes additional q code to retrieve list of variables for completions
   

   sublime-q/q_event.py

   Line 42 in 496293b

   res = q(QUpdateCompletionsCommand.query())

2. reads the results, and set it to global settings so sublime text can read it later
   

   sublime-q/q_event.py

   Line 71 in 496293b

   self.view.settings().set('q_compl', compl)

3. on_query_completions handles key type event, and return possible completions
   

   sublime-q/q_event.py

   Line 17 in 496293b

   def on_query_completions(self, view, prefix, locations):
