gok RFE: use function keys to select autocompletion matches
Last modified: 2011-10-14 11:00:55 UTC
From Jason Brower: "I have a friend that has a hard time typing as fast as her friends while online. I use a tablet in linux and love the GOK program because it can predict the next words that I may type. Taking these two senarios into consideration, could my friend use gok to her advantage? She could start to type a word, Gok predicts the word and offers three words, she is then very quickly able to select between those words but pressing F1-4 for the fist word F5-8 for the second word, and F9-12 for the third set. This way she does not have to take so much time to hit a key acurately for a ward, she can hit any of the top "F-sets" to select and type the word(s) needed. Did I explain it well enough? Jason Brower (who by the way, just discovered that Pressurized cheese and tortilla chips are a match made in heaven.)" (http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-accessibility-list/2005-May/msg00005.html)
gok (GNOME on-screen keyboard) development has been stalled and it has been replaced by caribou [1]. Maintainers don't have future development plan so i am closing all the bugs as WONTFIX. [1] https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-bugsquad/2011-October/msg00001.html
