UI/UX is bad

[LatticeMage]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
UX is bad, when we see an option, we usually press Enter, not tab due to the UI

Describe the solution you'd like
I think it is better to make the unfinished part is gray and hint user this command is not finished, and use tab to choose the result

Describe alternatives you've considered
not showing the option list, just gray letters for hint to press tab to fulfill

Additional context

The ghost text is an interesting idea, but I feel like it gives more a copilot feel than intellisense. I'll look into potentially making this a configurable UI option.

I think , we can think it of more like good design practices , rather than relating it to copilot feels , since gmail , also uses the design concept etc.

It could also be a good idea to have enter also trigger autocomplete

Very true!

If a user doesn't want to accept a submission, would you expect them to hit something like ESC and then enter to run the command? It feels like a breaking experience for most shell users where enter is always execute the command.

or if there is some setting file let user to choose his/her own key

Well, inshellisense is simulating actions which most often occur in an ide, and in most ides, that's how the intellisense works. Making it closer to ides would also make it better for your target audience, as most people who would use this plugin (myself included) are not as experienced with shell commands.

One way to improve the experience would be adding some simple settings, like how @LatticeMage said, and/or you could have the UI disappear when using arrow keys to navigate your line.

I'll look into making some of the actions, like accepting a suggestion, configurable. For ghost text, it will not be added to inshellisense due to #79. I'm going to allow users to leverage the built in shell suggestions while also viewing inshellisense suggestions, so ghost text will be reserved for the shell's builtin suggestions (zsh-autocomplete, fish, pwsh).
