Description
Hi, when I enable this feature, it works, but then my completer stops working. I'd like to use both of them:
enable_history_search=True,
I'm using the completer from:
./examples/regular-language.py
If you happen to read this, is there an example to do a non-regular language? ;)

Research direction
Start with examples/regular-language.py and reproduce the interaction between enable_history_search=True and its completer. Trace how each feature handles input, then verify that history search and completion work together without breaking the example; document or test the resulting behavior if the project’s existing test structure supports it.
