If the argument is a char_array the text_item completes from a plain list. It should return a chain of objects that match the indicated start of their object<-print_name. The chain may contain objects whose name does

• not* start with the indicated char_array. These will be filtered out by text_item->complete.

  If the argument is a tuple the text_item is used for a hierarchical structure. This method should return a chain of files matching tuple<-second in the directory tuple<-first.

  The default implementation exploits text_item<-value_set.
