> Thanks for the explanation Raphael. This makes more sense now, though I am still not very clear on the distinction between "completions" and "suggestions". The fish tutorial mentions command history -- that's something that's not typically done as a part of tab completion (though maybe it could be?). However, the rest -- file paths and command arguments -- that's clearly in scope for tab completion too and our tab handlers already do that. So, the idea of having "lightweight" completions which would also get run as a part of "suggestions" does not seem completely off track. Unless I am completely off track, that is...


It's more like a smarter and more user-friendly Ctrl+R search. Having it do something similar to tab completion is a stretch goal at the end. But at the moment the plan is to do just history based suggestions, then see if history + context is possible (i.e., make the suggestions paired to a specific target that you only get a suggestion for `b ASTContext.cpp:434` if you debug LLDB but not if you debug another random program) and then the lightweight completions if there is time left.
