Zsh-autocomplete: Simplify Customization Options

[PSalant726]

I'm really enjoying this plugin; thanks for your hard work and continued attention!

As a suggestion, it would be nice to simplify the customization options using ENV variables set in a user's .zshrc file (likely before sourcing zsh-autocomplete). Some recommended variable names:

• Always show group names:

export ZSH_AUTOCOMPLETE_ALWAYS_SHOW_GROUP_NAMES=true

• Turn off automatic spelling correction:

export ZSH_AUTOCOMPLETE_AUTO_CORRECT_SPELLING=true

• Use tab to cycle matches:

export ZSH_AUTOCOMPLETE_CYCLE_WITH_TAB=true

• Use tab and shift-tab to navigate the menu:

export ZSH_AUTOCOMPLETE_NAVIGATE_WITH_TAB=true

I could see the last two conflicting with one another, but that could be called out in the README.md.

Thank you for your kind praise! 🙇🏽‍♂️

About the feature request itself: I will have to think about it. 🙂

I would love to have the tabbing. I must admit that I fail to adjust my keybinds to your widgets to achieve that... 🙈

Starting with 7256aeb, you can configure zsh-autocomplete through Zsh's zstyle mechanism. Please see the Readme for the details.

Does not seem to work for me

Sorry, I somehow managed to commit the new code commented out. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I now pushed it in again, but not commented out this time. Please update and try again.

Awesome. I love it. Thank you so much. :pray:

Works like a charm now, great job, thank you!
