What are the keys for auto-completion? ie. selecting one item in the scrollbox with a keystroke?

You choose the selected item with the tab key. You can move up and down
with the cursor keys: up, down, page up, page down, home, end. Typing
characters moves the selection to the first item that starts with the 
string typed since the auto-completion appeared.

Alt+/ or Ctrl+Space do auto-expand (no list - just looks for similar 
words in the same buffer)
