Description

I was wondering if there was any way to disable the parenthesis matching in the autocompletion feature?

Example: in the text editor type prin then hit tab you will get print() and I would like to have the option to get print( instead.

Note: I am working in VScode and I am assuming that the autocompletion feature comes from languageserver not vscode-R

Research direction

Start by tracing the language-server autocompletion feature responsible for turning prin into print(), with the VS Code and vscode-R context in mind. Determine where the parenthesis behavior can be made configurable, then verify that the option can produce print( instead while preserving the existing behavior by default.
