[Bug] Mid-Word Completions #615

Bug Report

Description

If I accept a completion after having written the start of the word, Cotabby always adds a space before the completion.
Example: I type "ann" and it suggests "oying". I press tab and the result is "ann oying" (with a space before the completion).
This is really annoying because mid-word completions could be really useful. I think most of my completions with Cotypist were mid-word completions.

And in general, my experience is that the quality of mid-word completions is worse than the quality of normal completions. It mixes up or omits letters.
Examples: "Exa ample" "ex peirence" "reas o nable" "us uable" "re marcable" "re allly"

By the way thanks for the great work!!! This app is progressing at an incredible speed!!! So far, it's not usable for me, also because the suggestions still arrive ab bit slower than in Cotypist and to be useful, speeding up the suggestions even a bit is really important. But as I said, the progress is remarkable and as soon as I really start using the app, I'll surely support CoTabby with a donation!

Environment
