The debugger is really (de)bugging me. Every time I try to type a po ... command, it autocompletes (without giving me any options) and I end up typing stuff like po [selfelf and so on until I go mad. Is there any way of stopping this, or of always giving me the autocomplete popup like in the standard editor?

When you run an application in Xcode, the debugger is automatically started and attached to the process of the application. Click the Run button in the top left or press Command + R. From the moment the application is up and running, we can start inspecting the process and, if necessary, debug it.
The Xcode debugger provides several methods to step through your code and inspect variables. You can precisely control execution of your code from a breakpoint, stepping into and out of called functions as necessary to determine where your bug occurs.
The Swift REPL can be used for debugging, to test and interact with your app. When code breaks, typing repl into LLDB will allow you to interactively test code. You can call methods with different arguments, and test new functions by adding them to your existing code.

This is achieved by adding the following line to the "readline init file" (which, by default, I think does not exist). I created the file ~/.inputrc and put the following text in it:
set disable-completions 'On'
Hmm, the accepted answer is kind of overkill.
How about the answer provided to this question:
The closest I've come to solving this incredibly annoying problem is to turn off automatic code completion in general (Preferences > Text Editing > Suggest Completions While Typing) and then hit esc whenever I actually do want code completion.
