It would depend on which versions of auto-complete and yasnippet you`re
using.  I had to install them from their repos on github because there
was an incompatibility.  See


https://github.com/capitaomorte/yasnippet
https://github.com/auto-complete/auto-complete


Other than that, what your TAB key does would depend on what it`s bound
to.  In my case, it`s bound to `yas-expand', probably because I have .  It does what I think it
should.  I`m still working on figuring out all the possibilities with
these modes, though.


;; yasnippet /w autocomplete
;;
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/emacs/yasnippet")
(require 'yasnippet)
(yas-global-mode 1)

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/emacs/auto-complete")
(require 'auto-complete-config)
(ac-config-default)
(setq ac-menu-height 20)
