According to the README of that project, it does not support snippets nor auto-complete yet. Seems to be very alphaish..

Not snippets/completion, very specifically "[Sublime's] Auto-popups while typing". This is due to the way I intercept Sublime's input.

Vim's snippets/completion work fine, and Sublime's work fine if you invoke them in another way.

See https://github.com/lunixbochs/actualvim/issues/97 for the planned fix.

Of the main caveats:

- No multiple cursors is due to lack of support in neovim, it's blocked on either neovim implementing them or me emulating them

- No "Auto-popups while typing" is due to a limitation in Sublime's input system, which I plan to work around if they don't provide another first-party solution.

- Undo coalescing isn't a major issue unless you switch modes repeatedly, because Vim's undo works fine.

- Surfacing more of Vim's UI is slowly happening as neovim adds more UI APIs.

- "Extremely large files" is fixed in master for nvim->Sublime buffer changes with neovim 0.3's change deltas. It's not completely fixed for Sublime->nvim buffer changes (like if you run a host plugin or click a Sublime UI element), because Sublime has no delta system. #97 plus a C diffing library would sort that out, as would Sublime adding a change delta API.
