Shift-tab cycles the other way. Both the tab and the shift-tab mappings are configurable.

Note that shift-tab won't work in the console because the console won't pass that key combo to vim. Again, this can be remapped.

Is there a way to dismiss it without using the autocomplete?

ESC will do it. But you shouldn't really need to. You just continue typing and the menu goes away and pops back as needed. It does its best to be unobtrusive.

I was worried about interaction with Snipmate :) that's probably been accounted for, though. I'm really looking forward to trying this out.

If your going to use Snipmate, you may want to remap the completion selection key from TAB to something else (if you want to use TAB for Snipmate). See the docs for details.

Shift-tab works with SuperTab in the console.

Then it should work with YCM in your console as well (whether it works depends on the terminal emulator). A map is a map.

Well sometimes :) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3776117/vim-what-is-the-d...
