Description Allen Winter 2023-06-26 14:39:51 UTC 
maybe there's already a way to do this but I can't find the option.

can I disable autocompletion on text files but keep autocompletion on other types of files (like C++)

for example: when I type "Local" then hit return I don't want the editor to lower case that to "local" for me.

We tried to improve that completion behavior.

That should help in such cases and I don't think we should aim to allow to deactivate it fully.
