In the original Korn shell in vi mode, "tab" completion is achieved by pressing first the escape key and then the backslash key. Even option-escape is better than that. :)

I wonder why it's not tab. If it was tab, it would work the way a bunch of other programs work. Escape seems like the wrong key-- usually used for Cancel. This use is the opposite of Cancel.

In applescript editor, there is an autofill feature so that as you begin typing something, the remainder of the string appears.
Say you have a variable articleNumber and you begin typing art and you see articleNumber magically appear before you.
But I can find no way to actually use that. There seems to be no action that actually fills in the value; you must always type every character even though it knows what the characters are.
But I must be missing something.
Option-escape
