Hi Erik,
Exactly, in "\conninfo+" the "pattern" argument was not introduced and
therefore "listConnectionInformation()" can be declared (signed) without
any arguments. In the future, if necessary, and if there is a need to add
any "pattern", then that can be done. However, that's not the current
scenario. I removed everything related to the "pattern" from the patch.
Regarding "(\dS<TAB> actually autocompletes to \ds to my surprise)",
I was also surprised. I haven't studied the code yet to understand why
this happens. It seems curious to me. I'll try to understand this
implementation better.
I'm continuing the development of "\conninfo+" and now moving on to tests.
Tks a lot!

Maiquel Grassi.
