Scintilla uses the ? to select an image to show next to the item in the 
listctrl.  It's similar to using a wx.ImageList, you call RegisterImage 
to associate a bitmap with an image number, and then in the autocomp 
list you use syntax like "word?num" to associate that image number with 
that item.
