I am using the Python IDE Wing and just cannot seem to find the auto-complete option. Is there even such option in this program?

You are probably using Wing 101, which is a very scaled back version that does not have auto-completion. It was designed for teaching beginning programmers and the professors we worked with in creating it felt auto-completion should be left off.
Wing IDE Personal and Wing IDE Pro both have auto-completion and much more; Wing 101 really is severely scaled back to make it simple for beginners.

I had a feeling that this was the reason. Other than that it's a great IDE – Reboot_87 Jan 15 '14 at 17:16

I agree, I mean why even have an ide if there no autocomplete, you can use notepad.! – LoveMeow Oct 14 '15 at 11:12

For Wing 101 it was a design decision driven by educators wanting no completion for people just learning programming for the first time. Personally I'd want it even then ;-) but that's why it's like that. – Wingware Dec 20 '15 at 21:45
