Okay. That isn't documented anywhere I can find, even now that I know what
it is. Before sending this I checked the Autosuggestion sections under both
Tutorial and Documentation. I was trying to be helpful suggesting a feature
that didn't exist.

It took some fiddling around to sort out what you were talking about
because I don't use the arrow keys to accept the completion in favor of
ctrl+f. I thought you were referring to opt+f or opt+ctrl+f instead of
opt+right.

I just spent some time looking into what tool builds the documentation so I
can submit a pull request for the docs to include this information but
decided I was walking down the wrong path when I was reading the makefile.
What toolset is used to generate the html docs from doc_src files?
