I would like to test the new vertical wildmenu of Vim 9.

I read that set wildoptions=pum should provide it. But I'm not successful.

Is there another setting to set to get it?

  • Hi Maxim, is there a way to get the same menu using the <C-d> completion?

    @VivianDeSmedt I don't think so (as of today)

    @VivianDeSmedt You can use :set wildchar=<C-d> if you prefer to use <C-d> over <Tab>, although that will break Tab. Not sure how to have both; e.g. cnoremap <C-d> <Tab> doesn't work.

You have to:

  1. enable wildmenu: :set wildmenu
  2. set wildoptions to pum: set wildoptions=pum
  3. trigger completion using tab instead of Ctrld
