Suggest words already in the file
Editing · 1 min read
Even with nothing clever available, it will suggest words you have already used nearby.
When you would want it
This is the fallback for languages with no language server. A dumb suggestion of a word you definitely typed is still better than typing it again.
Where to find it
- All Features → Suggest words already in the file
- Turn on or off
- Settings
What you get out of it
- Long project-specific names stop needing to be retyped perfectly.
- Even languages with zero tooling get a useful suggestion list.
How to use it, step by step
- Keep typing - words you have already used in the file appear as suggestions.
- Press Tab or Enter to take one, Escape to keep typing on your own.
- No configuration; it is the automatic floor under every language.
Why this beats the usual way
Editors with no completion fallback leave un-tooled languages completely unassisted. Suggesting words already in the file is always right about spelling and always local.
