Autoword Completion...

Perhaps I am easily turned on, but let me tell you people about something pretty exciting. Get ready, ... It is the Autoword Completion function that I have in my recently downloaded and installed Star Office 7 Office Suite. Sounds simple right? Well let me tell you, it is a truly an invigurating tool - it learns words that one uses overtime so that once three letters are typed -- the program automatically fills in the rest for you, using your choice of "key"stroke. If a person was writing a paper on "Prognostication in the Symbolism of Appreciative Investigation," the program will learn the words so that the next time you write p-r-o, it guesses prognostication (think of the spelling saving efforts!) and fills it in as soon as one clicks their custom "key" stroke. The program will also remember these words, as they are added to a mini-list inside the program's memory - present everytime you come back to it.
Is this something that I could have done on Word? I don't know -- but I am doing it now. I immediately went into the Tools of the program and boosted the number of words I want the computer to remember from 500 to 2,000. I can't wait to see this list d-e-v "key" stroke e-l-o-p, over time. Fun times in the after hours I guess....

Whereas understanding is a foundation
Whereas mind should move
Whereas things have limits
Resolved that knowledge is king.
