Description

I believe it is called auto suggest and/or history,I want to change the right arrow key to alt/shift right for the auto suggest, but function normally and move 1 space right when right arrow key is pressed, could someone tell me what line/file to change? I don't know python but it should be fairly simple to change the bindings I'd imagine.

Research direction

Start by locating the repository's auto-suggest or history handling and the right-arrow key binding; the issue does not name a file or test. Confirm how key bindings are configured, then verify that the suggested completion uses the alternate key while the right arrow still moves one space.
