LetMeType: Freeware text

[KenR]

Here is a freeware program to pop up commonly used words while you type in any program.

Like Microsoft's AutoComplete, LetMeType helps you enter text, but regardless of the program you use. Running in the background, it analyses what you type. After some time it has collected enough information to guess a word after you have typed the first two or three letters. A list of the most probable words is displayed, and you can select one with a single keystroke or just continue typing.

This was mentioned earlier in another couple of threads.

"Word AutoCompleter
http://www.donationcoder....opic=1036.msg6713#msg6713
(mentions IntelliComplete, AutoTyping, LetMeType, AllChars, Type Pilot)"

and

"There is another one here (LetMeType):

and it's available in German too

Since I don't know the other candidates, I can't compare it.

But one feature was very important to me: There is an option
to exclude certain words (like passwords) from auto complete."

I can't LetMeType work properly in Vista, installation and running it works fine, however I cannot select anything from the popup menu, as it disappears on mouse over and no keyboard shortcuts are defined AFAIK. Also the helpfile is in an unsupported format.
