Alt + Left and Alt + Right allows me to switch between autocompletes in Utop, but tab will go back to first selection

In OCaml's utop, I can use alt+left or alt+right to move through autocomplete sections, but when I click tab to autocomplete the first selection is used. What do I do?

Solution

  • You can complete with the current selection with alt+down.

    If you type in #utop_bindings;;, you can see all keybindings.

    You may also customize your bindings by creating a ~/.lambda-term-inputrc-file, for example:

    [read-line]
tab: complete-bar
