How can I make the fzf snap app work with the Ubuntu Budgie terminal emulator Tilix?

What you can do is save the Bash autocompletion file somewhere from upstream and then load it when you start bash in your terminal. This works for me: 

# Save the autocomplete functions in the home directory
curl -o ~/.fzf-autocomplete https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/fzf/master/shell/completion.bash

# In ~/.bash_aliases add the following lines
alias fzf="fzf-carroarmato0.fzf"
source ~/.fzf-autocomplete

And then restart the terminal.

You can verify that it works when appending "**" to something you want to fuzzy search. Perhaps someday I'll look into and figure out how to do this more automatically.
