mobile fone keyboard

[TheOnlyOne]

hey

im trying to make a keyboard on numpad as it was on a mobile

so

i startefd at it but i cant get it to work

i have tryed this

expandcollapse popup

hotkeyset("{numpad7}","_1")

while 1
sleep(5)

WEnd
func _1()

$2=$2+1
if $2=5 then $2=1
$timer=timerinit()
Do
    $diff=TimerDiff($timer)
until $diff>1300
switch $2
    case 1
        $letter="a"
    case 2
        $letter="b"
    case 3
        $letter="c"
    case 4
        $letter="2"
EndSwitch
tooltip($letter)
$1=0
if $30=false  then
_check()
endif
EndFunc


func _check()
$30=True
$answer=$answer&$letter
$slen=StringLen($answer)

for $b=1 to _FileCountLines($file)
$read=FileReadLine($file,$b)
tooltip($answer)
if stringlen($read)=$slen Then
    if $answer=$read Then
        $answer2=$read
        msgbox(0,"",$read)
    EndIf
EndIf

Next
$30=false
EndFunc

but when i made this i just saw one thing

when im clicking on numpad 7 it will first sellect i want an A and if i click again in lesser then 1,3 sec then i will change to b and if again then c and again 2 and then all around again

but the problem is!

i want to use a file where it reads words from

so it will be like if i click numpad 7 it should take the letters a b c 2 and try best possible to create the next word

so like if i press one time on numpad 7 and then again then it will try to spell ab or ac or aa but also when i click numpad 7 and numpad 5 (for an example) then it should post ex "ao" or "bo" or "co"

but i cant get it to work ;s

sorry for some bad english i hope you get what im saying

see thats what my script just do now

but the one different thing i want is

when you click numpad 8 it should know there are 3 options "a" "b" "c"

if you click numpad 8 again

then there are different ways it can spell the next word ex.

if you click

numpad 8

numpad 8

numpad 8

numpad 9

it should come up with the word babe or other words it could spell to (this words stand in a file) but just how ? i cant get it to work

TheOnlyOne,

Ah, you want predictive text input - that is a whole new ball-game.

TheOnlyOne,

Check out this post. I helped someone make a keyboard which uses a pretty complete T9 dictionary. Might need to add some features etc.
