BBAutoComplete includes AppleScripts that let you invoke it from inside other
programs. To access these scripts, choose Show Scripts from the
BBAutoComplete menu. Find the color corresponding to the application that
you’re using, e.g. BBEdit 10.
These scripts need to be installed in particular locations so that they
show up in the Scripts menus of the aforementioned programs.

open this folder, you can choose About The Scripts Menu from Affrus’s
Scripts menu, and then click the Open Scripts Folder button.

The scripts go in the folder ~/Library/Application
Support/BBEdit/Scripts. You may need to set the trigger keys after
installing the scripts.

Support/Mailsmith/Scripts.

The Launch and Quit Scripts folder contains optional scripts that
open BBAutoComplete when you open your editor and quit it when your
editor quits. The Launch BBAutoComplete script goes in BBEdit,
Mailsmith, or TextWrangler’s Startup Items folder, or in Smile’s
~/Library/Application Support/Smile/More stuff/Initialization/
folder (which you may need to create). The Quit BBAutoComplete
script goes in BBEdit, Mailsmith, or TextWrangler’s Shutdown Items
folder. It may be necessary for you to create the Startup Items and
Shutdown Items folders. You might find it inconvenient to use these
scripts if you use more than one of the programs.
