BBAutoComplete adds word auto-completion to Affrus, BBEdit, Mailsmith, Microsoft Word, Script Debugger, Smile, Tex-Edit Plus, and TextWrangler. You type the start of a word, press a key, and BBAutoComplete types the letters to complete the word. If BBAutoComplete guessed wrong, you can keep pressing the key to cycle through other possible completions. Other auto-completion utilities need to be taught the abbreviations and expansions that you use; BBAutoComplete avoids this hassle by automatically looking for expansions in the program's open documents. This means that it always suggests

BBAutoComplete adds word auto-completion to Affrus, BBEdit, Mailsmith, Microsoft Word, Script Debugger, Smile, Tex-Edit Plus, and TextWrangler. You type the start of a word, press a key, and BBAutoComplete types the letters to complete the word. If BBAutoComplete guessed wrong, you can keep pressing the key to cycle through other possible completions. Other auto-completion utilities need to be taught the abbreviations and expansions that you use; BBAutoComplete avoids this hassle by automatically looking for expansions in the program's open documents. This means that it always suggests completions that are relevant to your current task.
BBAutoComplete is probably most useful for programmers, who need to remember and type long variable and method names, but it can also help with prose writing. It's useful any time you need to type long words quickly and accurately.
BBEdit 9 has a built-in auto-completion feature, however BBAutoComplete
is preferable in some ways. Depending where your cursor is, BBEdit may
ignore potential completions, even if the words appear just a few lines
away in the same document. BBAutoComplete consistently shows the same
completions, and it prefers words from the same document to words from
the dictionary. It's also case-sensitive, to narrow the list to the most
relevant completions.

Installation was a bit alienating though, you'll need to consult the help files to work out how to install it properly, and I imagine newbies would have a hard time understanding the instructions there. But once you've got it installed it "just works".
