Alternative autocompletion

==========================

This plugin adds an autocompletion command to Sublime Text that acts similarly to TextMate:

* Hitting the autocomplete key will attempt to complete the current word by looking at similar words in the current document.

* Hitting the autocomplete key multiple times will cycle through the available words.

* The last autocomplete position is remembered, so you can perform an autocompletion, move the cursor around, move back to where you were, and continue cycling through the completions.

* Candidate completions are selected prioritized by distance to the cursor.

The plugin improves on TextMate in one respect: If no candidates are found, the plugin reverts to using a simple fuzzy, case-insensitive matching algorithm that is similar to Sublime's file/class matching algorithm. For example, typing `appc` might match `ApplicationController`.
