I have not found anything in the description that would disturb my workflow with various completion packages, an I found few new of them to try out. I like when it works out of the box. Ivy works most of the time, sometimes will not show completions. Selectrum requires more packages to work similar to Ivy and Helm. I hope that new patch to icomplete as vertical is soon adopted, as best is when it is built-in into Emacs, though I don't like mode line jumping up when completing, I like new split window opened. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns Sign an open letter in support of Richard M.
