Alternative autocompletion

This plugin adds an autocompletion command to Sublime Text that acts similarly to TextMate:

Hitting the autocomplete key will attempt to complete the current word by looking at similar words in the current document.
Hitting the autocomplete key multiple times will cycle through the available words.
The last autocomplete position is remembered, so you can perform an autocompletion, move the cursor around, move back to where you were, and continue cycling through the completions.
Candidate completions are selected prioritized by distance to the cursor.

The plugin improves on TextMate in one respect: If no candidates are found, the plugin reverts to using a simple fuzzy, case-sensitive matching algorithm that is similar to Sublime's file/class matching algorithm. For example, typing AppC might match ApplicationController.

Installation

Using Package Control, install “AlternativeAutocompletion” or clone this repo in your packages folder.

I recommended you add key bindings for the commands. I've included my preferred bindings below. Copy them to your key bindings file (⌘⇧,).

Key Bindings

Copy these to your user key bindings file.

{ "keys": ["escape"], "command": "alternative_autocomplete", "context":
  [
    { "key": "num_selections", "operator": "equal", "operand": 1 },
    { "key": "panel_visible", "operator": "equal", "operand": false },
    { "key": "overlay_visible", "operator": "equal", "operand": false },
    { "key": "has_prev_field", "operator": "equal", "operand": false },
    { "key": "has_next_field", "operator": "equal", "operand": false }
  ]
},
{ "keys": ["shift+escape"], "command": "alternative_autocomplete", "args": {"cycle": "previous"}, "context":
  [

  ]
},
{ "keys": ["tab"], "command": "next_field", "context":
  [
    { "key": "has_next_field", "operator": "equal", "operand": true }
  ]
},
{ "keys": ["shift+tab"], "command": "alternative_autocomplete", "args": {"tab" : true, "cycle": "previous"}, "context":
  [
    { "key": "num_selections", "operator": "equal", "operand": 1 }
  ]
},
{ "keys": ["shift+tab"], "command": "prev_field", "context":
  [
    { "key": "has_prev_field", "operator": "equal", "operand": true }
  ]
},

Limitations

Currently does not work with multiple selections.
