I've been a vim user since 2014 I think. Sometimes I'd accidentally mash some keys while typing and this beautiful green dropdown menu would momentarily flash before my eyes.
I had no idea what it was but it looked like an autocomplete. Initially I thought it was from the OS, or the terminal emulator. But slowly I began to form the idea that: Could it really be vim...itself?
Vainly I search for the secret command in the past. Google failed me. StackOverflow failed me. My search fu was weak I suppose....but today I am victorious.
I have discovered the secret combination. Thank you ChatGPT for enlightening me.
