Overview -------- On Github: https://github.com/aaronj1335/ucompleteme `ucompleteme` is a Vim plugin for insert-mode completion.  It combines the results of omni-completion with its own "proximity" completion function. `ucompleteme` attempts to provide completion options intelligently, so the user doesn't have to think about what kind of code completion to use ([omni-completion](http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/insert.html#i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O), [current file completion](http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/insert.html#i_CTRL-X_CTRL-N), etc.).  Plugins like [SuperTab](http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1643) provide a means to easily switch between different completion methods, but they aren't as opinionated about building the list of matches for the user. The philosophy behind `ucompleteme` is that instead of having to think about which completion type is best, the completion funciton should make an educated guess by first running the omni-completion function (where available), then finding matches within the current buffer, then other buffers of the same filetype, and finally the remaining buffers. Details ------- `ucompleteme` provides a [user-defined completion function](http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/insert.html#i_CTRL-X_CTRL-U). By default it re-maps `<tab>` in insert mode to use this function.  If an omnifuc is defined, `ucompletme` starts by populating the list with those results first and giving the user a chance to interact.  After that it will run its own "proximity" completion function that searches each line of a buffer progressively further from the cursor.  The proximity search is run on the current buffer, and then the other buffers of the same filetype, and finally the remaining open buffers. Options ------- - **g:ucompleteme\_map\_tab**: if this is set to 1, `ucompleteme` will re-map    `<tab>` in insert mode - **g:max\_lines\_for\_omnifunc**: omni-completion functions can be slow for    large files.  this determines how large a file can be before `ucompleteme`    will not skip using omni-completion and just use keyword completion.
