If the list of completions is too long to fit in the
@file{*Completions*} window, the window can be scrolled by pressing
@kbd{M-@key{TAB}} repeatedly.  Online help (if installed) for each
possible completion is available by clicking with @kbd{mouse-3} on the
item.  Items for which system online help (from the IDL manual) is

code for a short time.  Calling the above commands with a prefix
argument will prompt for an expression instead of using the one at
point.

It is very convenient to click with the mouse on expressions to retrieve
their value.  Expression printing is also bound to @kbd{S-mouse-2} and
expression help to @kbd{C-S-mouse-2}.  I.e. you need to hold down
@key{SHIFT} and @key{CONTROL} while clicking with the mouse.
