corfu VS citar

You could try corfu. It has auto-completion disabled by default and works most places with M-Tab. Or you could set a longish corfu-auto-delay (0.75s say), and let auto popup only when you stop to ponder a while.

Corfu supports this. Or at least it allows you to move completions to the mini buffer which I find quiet useful.

A substantial section of the community is using corfu instead of company, but I wouldn't say company is out of date by any means. In emacs 29 eglot will be a built in, which might act as a replacement for lsp-mode depending on what functionality you need.

Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

I am currently using evil and corfu, but I want to configure such that pressing a single escape will invoke corfu-quit when its UI is active (because pressing "C-g" is harder).

A few days ago I found an unexplained slowness when using Corfu on Emacs 29 with pgtk. I stripped my configuration to basically just Corfu, and still had a noticeable delay. Maybe it is related to your problem. https://github.com/minad/corfu/issues/307

The most straight forward solution is probably the package company-math. (that's what I use but with corfu and cape)

If you're a researcher, I highly recommend citar.

If you have info on what you're looking for there, post 'em here.

I maintain citar and have had some questions (this is the recent one) about org-noter integration. Let us know if any input!

In fact this functionality already exists in the Citar package -- it's called citar-capf.

I recently decided to try switching to more built-in options such as the new built-in org-cite syntax. I am using the package citar for this (yes, I know org-ref can also be changed to use the new built-in syntax).

If you need citations, having Citar at your disposal is crazy nice.

Very very cool. Awesome to see so many authors using org-mode. Have you seen citar for finding and inserting citations?

OK, I just pushed a commit that allows one to configure that default function to leave the space out.

The citar package, which I created, has note integration packages available for both org-roam and denote (along with zk).
