I have installed a standalone product (ubuntu).
Watching the Screencast, I can see a code assistance when the command "for" is typed.
However, in my installation, there is not this help.
Why?

Hi

Maybe you are not familiar with Eclipse, and not aware that the code assistance has to be triggered by pressing "CTRL+Space"?
But what you may be encountering is that you start hitting CTRL+Space when nothing has been typed yet: at the moment you have to start typing e.g. "fo" if you want the code tempates related to "for" to show up. Otherwise you'll only have the autocompletion for the "for" keyword, which is of much less interest!

HTH...
