Yeah, that’s the same thing. bbedit --maketags calls an embedded

OK I think I am starting to get this. So you have to run it on a
directory
with files from a dev language to index its various commands and
functions,
etc..
That’s correct.
There is no way to generate a tag file for simple English terms I
want to add to completions?
If they’re all one-word terms, I suppose you could kludge things.
Create a file called `terms.h` containing:
```
#define Albertopolis
#define Brobdingnagian
#define Pantagruelian
#define Zyrian
```
Run `bbedit --makestags` in the directory containing your `terms.h` and
then copy the resulting `tags` file to wherever it is that BBEdit wants
it.
I haven’t tested this but it’s probably worth a try.
I am stuck with creating snippets or using the
OS completions?
There might be some other way that neither of us know of!

P.S.: I assume Chris Stone could gin up some fancy AppleScript to
bulk-add snippets, as is his wont.
