** The =unravel-completion.el= settings for dynamic text expansion (~hippie~)
Hippie is a built-in expansion mechanism that competes with dabbrev. I prefer hippie because of the simpler configuration and detailed expansion options it provides.
Hippie uses Dabbrev as one of the expansion sources, so all the dabbrev settings above are still important.
