This extension adds the ability to auto-complete by incremental steps. (Think bash auto-completion.)
Troubleshooting
My suggestions are not detected by Partial Autocomplete
See extension settings. Some languages (for example Lua) use CompletionItemKind.Text (plain text) for suggestions. Text suggestions are ignored with the default settings.

Known Issues
Some suggestions shown will not have parts suggested. This concerns auto-corrected suggestions (changed capital letters/unscrambled words/…).
The extension filters suggestions that start with the word before the cursor. This is to improve performance.
