Hmm, I interpreted Aman's question to mean how to autocomplete on words in the buffer, not on previously entered search terms. So, for example, if I had this message open and I type /auto then <tab> (or ctrl-p/n, etc.) it should put /autocomplete on the search line, without me having searched for 'autocomplete' previously. Is that even possible?
