boolean interceptKeyEvent(PHighlightedTextArea comp,

The PHighlightedTextArea will pass all key events to its auto-completer before processing the event for itself.

Parameters:

e - The event which occurred.

True if the component should ignore the KeyEvent (because this method already performed a special action associated with it). In either case, KeyListeners of the component will still be informed of the event.
