Re: Can GOK work with autocompletion?

[Peter Korn <Peter Korn Sun COM>]

Hi Evan,

This is an interesting idea - having GOK work with auto-completion!  GOK 
has its own work completion algorithm, but that by its nature cannot 
have application-specific knowledge, and so generally won't do as good a 
job.

The question is, how should GOK show such application-specific word 
completion, and how do we communicate that between the application and 
GOK via AT-SPI.  Evan, David - any thoughts?
