If <tab> were used for autocomplete instead of <enter> then we wouldn't have issues with "..." commands requiring a 2nd <enter> key press (especially in cases where you rarely want to add any optional parameters, such as ":w").</enter></enter></tab>

The completion stuff is NetBeans. In fact you can use TAB, but this is in addition to ENTER, not instead of ENTER. So that doesn't really help.

I don't know of any way to disable enter, but I'll keep it in mind.

I should have mentioned that there's
Tools>Options>jVi>Platform>command completion auto popup
Turn this off. Then use ^D to bring up completion
