copilot.el VS dotfiles

Yeah and there's already a well-known (at least I already knew about it) package started in 2022 called "copilot" for Emacs that is actually a client for GitHub Copilot: https://github.com/zerolfx/copilot.el

Given the lack of namespacing in Elisp (or, rather, the informal namespacing conventions by which these two packages collide) it's unfortunate that this package chose the same name.

It's a package to integrate Bigcode/Starcoder into Emacs like https://github.com/zerolfx/copilot.el does with Github Copilot.

It's not fancy with previewable overlays and stuffs as https://github.com/zerolfx/copilot.el and I am not so sure if the performance is optimal, but it gets the bare job done.

Unfortunately, the only way I've managed to get code completion working without having to use the C-c ' buffer is through the unofficial copilot.el. The good news is that it work for any language (including elisp literate configs) but it's a little too aggressive on it's completions.

I'm trying out github copilot with this package: https://github.com/zerolfx/copilot.el, configured like this:

that was enough for this to work from https://github.com/zerolfx/copilot.el

Devs could use the unofficial plugin for Emacs (https://github.com/zerolfx/copilot.el) as a guideline to add support

I vastly prefer Vim's way of action+selection to kakoune's selection+action. Tried kakoune in the past for a few days and this decision was constantly getting in my way.

Here is a short write-up (not mine) about why kakoune model is not that appealing: https://github.com/noctuid/dotfiles/blob/master/emacs/editin...
