  <title>Word completion</title>

  <p>The <app>Word Completion</app> plugin can speed up your editing by 
  suggesting completions of words as you type. To enable the plugin, select 
  <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Plugins</gui><gui>Word 
  Completion</gui></guiseq>.</p>

  <p>While editing, the <app>Word Completion</app> plugin will automatically 
  display a pop-up list of words that begin with the letters you have already 
  typed. Word suggestions are based upon words that appear elsewhere in your 
  document and upon pre-defined keywords if your document is of a recognised 
  format.</p>

  <p>To insert a suggested word, double-click on it in the pop-up list or 
  press <keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>Num</key></keyseq>, where <key>Num</key> 
  is the number displayed next to your desired word.</p>
