Description

A major system keyboard feature that Scribe still lacks is autocorrect. This feature would ideally function in both the normal text proxy and the Scribe command bar so that a user could correctly type in a word to translate, conjugate or get the plural for. The data for each Scribe keyboard could likely be used as a reference for this feature.

This Stack Overflow question could be of help.

Discussions of how best to implement this feature and code contributions are more than welcome!

  • Autocomplete is another related and necessary feature and is covered in #3

Research direction

Start by reviewing the custom keyboard behavior described in the Stack Overflow reference, then compare the normal text proxy and Scribe command bar mentioned in the issue. Check how each Scribe keyboard's data could support autocorrection. Done means autocorrection works in both input areas without preventing translation, conjugation, or plural lookup.
