I actually don't really understand using this as an "IDE" - part of the reason I don't think I'd be able to leave Eclipse is because it's "fully loaded" so to speak - such as navigating my project's directory/structure, debugging, etc, and I don't think I could live without auto-complete (maybe I'm lazy, but I didn't see it in this video and I don't see how it'd be possible in a Vim environment?), not just auto-complete for the time saving but also for the inspection - I (unfortunately) work with a convoluted piece of technology where every instance of a class seems to inherit a gazillion properties & methods and I sometimes don't know what I'm looking for unless I can scroll down the list that auto-complete gives me. |

In insert mode the keys CTRL-P, CTRL-N complete the previous/next matching word. Instead of these keys you can use the supertab plugin, to complete a word by hiting tab in insert mode.
You can choose where vim searches for matching words with the variable 'complete'.
There's also the omnicompletion, which does language specific completes, like method names of an object, by using ctags.
Search for 'omnicomplete <language>' to find the language specific plugin.
