but
how do i navigate the list without using arrow keys ? it is getting
kinda natrual to use jk to move up and down ( i find myself typing j
and k into other text editors)

what keys do i use to navigate and select the function from the list ?

thanks

Try Ctrl-N (next) and Ctrl-P (previous), as mentioned under :help 
i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O. The same keys are used for other kinds of Insert-mode 
completion.


IIUC, when you're at the first match, Ctrl-P goes back to what you typed 
without removing the menu: thus, you can type in more characters of context 
and the menu will change accordingly.



Best regards,
Tony.
