I use 

;;; mcomplete.el --- minibuffer completion with prefix and substring matching

[...]

;; This program borrows the ideas and the design of the following
;; programs:
;;
;;  icomplete.el --- minibuffer completion incremental feedback
;;  Author: Ken Manheimer
;;
;;  iswitchb.el --- switch between buffers using substrings
;;  Author: Stephen Eglen

[...]

;;; Commentary:

;; This package enhances Emacs's minibuffer completion mechanism.
;;
;; In short, this is icomplete.el + iswitchb.el +/- something.

[...]

;;; Compatibility:

;; complete.el
;;   tab, space, ... is used for mcomplete-mode.
;;   M-tab, M-SPACE, ... might work.
;;
;; completing-help.el (>= version 3.3)
;;   With this packege, short descriptions on completions is displayed
;;   by pressing `?'.
;;
;;   You can get completing-help.el at
;;   http://homepage1.nifty.com/bmonkey/emacs/elisp/completing-help.el
;;
;; icomplete.el
;;   icomplete-mode gets turned off when mcomplete-mode is activated.
;;
;; ido.el (http://hjem.get2net.dk/storm/emacs/)
;;   Both work. ido commands take precedence.
;;
;; iswitchb.el
;;   Both work. iswitchb commands take precedence.
;;

[...]

;;  Here's a code for bookmark-jump a la iswitch-buffer.
;;  (put 'bookmark-jump
;;       'mcomplete-mode
;;       '(:method-set (mcomplete-substr-method mcomplete-prefix-method)
;;         :exhibit-start-chars 0))
