BBAutoComplete - Typing Enhancer

BBAutoComplete adds word auto-completion to scriptable applications. You type the start of a word, press a key, and BBAutoComplete types the letters to complete the word. If BBAutoComplete guessed wrong, you can keep pressing the key to cycle through other possible completions. [...] BBAutoComplete consistently shows the same completions, and it prefers words from the same document to words from the dictionary. It's case-sensitive, to narrow the list to the most relevant completions.

The website lists these programs which BBAutoComplete is known to work with: Affrus, BBEdit (not BBEdit Lite), Mailsmith, Microsoft Word, Script Debugger 3.x, Smile, Tex-Edit Plus, TextWrangler and suggests it would be most suitable for programmers and others who work in jargon-intensive fields. It's also helpful for blogs writers, such as yours truly, who have to type weird words like BBAutoComplete which aren't things I know how to spell!

I think BBAutoComplete would be a good companion to one of the text expansion tools that we've already covered on ATMac.
