[IDEA] recode intellicomplete, make it publicly available
bmms:
Just found this topic.
The requested "text prediction intelli-autocomplete" feature is implemented in PhraseExpress v5 and has significantly improved in v6 .
Here is a video demo:

Additional background information in the manual:
http://manual.phraseexpress.com#autolearn
Basically, the text prediction feature continuosly listens to your text input and recognizes repetitive words and, more important, repetitive complete phrases which makes this system quite unique.
After you entered a phrase a few times, PhraseExpress starts suggesting to autocomplete the sentence for you if you start typing it again.
This feature does not depend on a static dictionary but only on your personal input; in any language and with any words. The dictionary does not need to be maintained in any way. Misspellings are sorted out automatically and new words are learned as you type. Passwords are not stored and excluded from PhraseExpress automatically.
We found that full-sentence auto-completion is much better than just to autocomplete single-words. Single-word autocompletion may generate too many suggestions whenever you start typing a new word; which can be distracting.
However, you can also configure PhraseExpress to suggest single words if you require it for a specific application:
Settings Screenshot
Single words can be suggestion either within a context or in independing of the context.
Example: The word "island" would not be suggested after you entered "The car is..." as it just would not fit to any meaningful context.
PhraseExpress is free for personal use:

I tried PE in 3 different computers.
I could not get it to mimic intellicomplete. It may be interacting with something else I have installed.
My posts asking for help in their forum got deleted. I do not have time for fixing this when other alternatives worked out of the box for me.

urlwolf, which alternatives were those?
urlwolf:
Right now I'm using typing assistant.
Not sure if I'll buy it though. I missed the DC discount.

It's been on GAOTD a couple of times, so that and Bits du Jour might be worth watching.
There's also
Instant Text (expensive but good)
Type Booster
Smart Type Assistant
Yadabyte SubText
Type Pilot
Texter
ShortCut
Comfort Keys
and probably plenty more to try! ;)
