Autocomplete by Uberi

Suggests and completes words as you type! Write faster and more efficiently.

Screenshot

Using

  1. Extract the archive to a safe location.
  2. If you downloaded the binaries, open Autocomplete.exe.
  3. If you downloaded the source, make sure you have a recent version of AutoHotkey installed, and run Autocomplete.ahk.
  4. Start typing somewhere. After the first few characters, a suggestion box will appear.
  5. Use the Up/Down and PgUp/PgDn keys to select an entry if the currently selected one is not the desired word.
  6. Press Enter or Tab to trigger the completion with the currently selected word.
  7. Alternatively, press one of 1, 2, ... 9, 0 to trigger completion with the 1st, 2nd, ... 9th, and 10th word, repectively.
  8. Press Esc to cancel and close the suggestions list.

Advanced

Click on the tray icon to bring up the settings dialog. The dialog allows you to configure settings such as the maximum number of results to show at a time and the number of characters to type before showing suggestions.

The dialog also allows you to edit the wordlist by adding or removing words. All settings are saved automatically upon program exit.

The wordlist is contained in WordList.txt. Each line represents a word. The list can be edited with a text editor, but ensure the editor supports larger files before doing so! Some may crash or hang upon editing such files.

Settings are stored in Settings.ini in the program directory. This contains a few more settings not accessible in the settings dialog, mainly the key settings.

Key settings are URL encoded lists of key names such as Space and d where each entry is separated by a newline (the URL encoded version of a newline is %0A). They can be edited to change the keys accepted by the program.
