Description
Would it be possible to expose an option to enable an autocomplete-while-you-type experience in IPython shell? In other words, try to show the user the menu of available autocompletions when they hit any key, rather than making them hit Tab to see it, similar to how autocompletion works in IDEs like VS Code, PyCharm, etc.
I searched the tracker and the docs for this and couldn't find it. Sorry if I missed something.
Thanks for your consideration and for the great work on IPython!
