Using Word Completion

In order to use the word completion facilities in GTKeyboard, you need to select the New Completion Window menu item from the Misc menu. A new window will pop up, containing ten numbered items with small arrow buttons on the right hand side of the rows.

This is the completion window. Whenever you type a new character into GTKeyboard, regardless of whether it goes to the text editing buffer or to a redirect window, the redirection window will ``listen'' to the character you press, and will suggest up to 10 words that start with what you typed.

If you wish to use on of the listed completions, simply click on the arrow icon to the right of the completion that is listed. GTKeyboard will insert the remainder of the word wherever your output was going. (That is, if you were using a redirect window, the completion will go there, otherwise it will go to the text editing buffer).
