Can't insert tab even when no suggestions are shown

[prati0100]

Hi,

When my cursor is at the end of a word and I try to hit \<Tab>, nothing happens. No suggestions show (because there are none to show), and the tab character doesn't get inserted. I have to hit \<C-V>\<Tab> to insert a tab which is a tad bit annoying.

Example:

When I try to press the tab here, nothing happens. The tab character is not inserted and no completion menu is shown.

I have set completeopt=menuone,noselect

Is it possible to fix this problem?

I have added a new option to enable the behaviour you have requested. Upgrade to the current master and try:

let g:mucomplete#tab_when_no_results = 1

Feel free to reopen if this does not work as expected.

Thanks for taking this on, but I have the same behavior as before even after enabling the option. Tabs are not inserted when there are no suggestions.

Mucomplete related settings I have:

set completeopt+=menuone
set completeopt+=noselect
set previewheight=2
set shortmess+=c
set dictionary+=spell

let g:mucomplete#enable_auto_at_startup = 1
let g:mucomplete#tab_when_no_results = 1

Sorry, there was a typo in the name of the option. Please update to the current master and try again.

Sorry for the late response. It works now. Thanks.
