Automatic Word Lookup / Display

[joeldare]

I would like to see a feature that would automatically lookup the word you were typing in a dictionary.

If I had a dictionary entry of:

echo ( string arg1 [, string ...] )

When I type in the letters "ec" it would show the first matching entry from the dictionary (in this case, the echo line above) in the status bar at the bottom.

This would be an invaluable tool for those of us who do development using textpad, be it HTML, Java, PHP, Python, MySQL, or anything else.

This is similar to "code completion", but it does it in a way I like better.

It could be designed so that if there are no dictionaries, then it add's little or no overhead to the program.

Autohotkey has several macros which can be used to achieve this feature.
