symbol-completion-searches-all-packages

Arguments: configuration

Returns (or sets with setf) whether symbol completion will search all packages after finding no symbols in the initial search package.

If the symbol being typed has a package qualifier, then the initial search package is the package named by that qualifier; otherwise it is the current package. If one or more symbols are found in this initial search package, then only those symbols are presented as completion choices. (If there is only one choice, then that symbol is completed automatically.) But if there are no symbols found in the initial search package, then all packages will then be searched only if this property is true.

See Search | Complete Symbol.

symbol-completion-searches-all-packages is a property of the configuration class.
