      JShell's API contains:
      SourceCodeAnalysis.completionSuggestions
      which provides completions for the given snippet. This works well for the JShell in the terminal, but does not work so well for more graphical JShell uses. In a more full-featured GUI for JShell, the code completion could show parameters for methods, maybe even with colors, etc. But, the current API does not support doing that.
