I've been experimenting with predict-on, incremental-complete-word, and the extension zsh-autosuggestions.
I'm looking for a way to display the tab complete options like predict-on does, but without trying to complete the command from history (predict-on writes the completion into the terminal, which I don't want, zsh-autosuggestions's preview is better). I can't seem to find this behavior in the description of predict-on, but it acts like I hit tab whenever I type something and shows the complete options.
incremental-complete-word only does the word, which isn't what I'm looking for.
Is there a way to do this? If there was a way to disable predict-on's history search that would be exactly what I want.

Unfortunately, there's no easy way to do that out-of-the-box in Zsh.
But fortunately, I wrote a plugin called
zsh-autocompletethat does exactly that. Have a look at the demo there to see if it's what you're looking for. Feedback, bug reports and feature suggestions welcome! ?
