@jacob-fm

is there an easy way to disable that?

Not at the moment, but feel free to submit a pull request. It's not hard to implement. You'll need to change only a small part of the code

I should have listened to "Do we want to mix all of those? Aren't some of them competing?"... zsh-autocomplete won't play ball with fast-syntax-highlighting. Many thanks for the gist.

Thanks for your help!
