FarManager and Tab completion

Question

I am learning Far 3.0 and since the Tab key is mapped to pane swapping, how can you auto-complete paths when typing on the Far command line? I tried some plugins, but none of them worked.

Thanks!

1. Far has internal autocomplete feature. F9 -> Options -> Command line settings. You may also press CtrlSpaceto access completion dialog.

2. There is YAC plugin. However, it was written for Far 2.x and requires Far3Wrap if you want to use it in Far 3.x. Please note, Far3wrap was not adopted yet to the latest changes of Far 3.x, so build 2798 or lower required.
