## For nvim-cmp

```lua
require('cmp').setup({
    sources = {
        {
            name = 'look',
            keyword_length = 2,
            option = {
                convert_case = true,
                loud = true
                --dict = '/usr/share/dict/words'
            }
        }
    }
})
```

## For ddc

```vim
call ddc#custom#patch_global('sources', ['look'])
call ddc#custom#patch_global('sourceOptions', {
      \ '_': {'matchers': ['matcher_head']},
      \ 'look': {'converters': ['loud', 'matcher_head'], 'matchers': [], 'mark': 'l', 'isVolatile': v:true}
      \ })
call ddc#custom#patch_global('sourceParams', {
      \ 'look': {
      \   'convertCase': v:true,
      \   'dict': v:null
      \ }})
```

## Configuration options

### convert_case cmp/ convertCase ddc (type: boolean)

Convert the candidates to match the input characters in the case.

### loud cmp (type: boolean)

Convert the candidates to UPPERCASE if all input characters are uppercase.

### loud ddc (converter)

A converter instead of option for ddc

### dict cmp ddc (type: null|string)

null or specify the dict file path

### dflag cmp ddc (type: boolean)

"-d" is passed Transparently to look. Remove non-alphanumeric characters from
keywords and recalculate keyword_length.

> Use normal dictionary character set and order, i.e., only blanks and
> alphanumeric characters are compared. This is on by default if no file is
> specified.

### fflag cmp ddc (type: boolean)

"-f" is passed Transparently to look.

> Ignore the case of alphabetic characters. This is on by default if no file is
> specified.

## Breaking Changes

- 2022-06-23 Do not pass fflag when the dictionary is set.
