I'm considering the purchase of a WM6 device after a number of years of extensive use of WM5.

One of the most useful utilities on my WM5 device was the "Word Completion Dictionary Editor" created by Dmitriy Geels. I used it to add words to the list of suggestions that appear when word completion is enabled (in WM5, Start > Settings > Personal > Input > Word Completion). I added a variety of words that weren't included in the default dictionary, including surnames, e-mail addresses, industry terminology, and so on.

I've been playing with an emulated WM6 device, and WM6 does not support the utility. Web searches have made it clear that none of the dictionary editors that worked on WM5 are working on WM6 devices, emulated or real.

Does anyone know a solution to this issue? Possible solutions could include:

• a method for editing WM6's (evidently well-hidden) dictionary file manually
• a referral to an updated or new editor that works with WM6, preferably freeware.

I know that a functional word completion dictionary editor would not strike many people as a killer app, but the nature of the work I do on my mobile device makes it an absolute necessity.

cheers

Unfortunately there isn't one yet. You will have to use a third party sip that includes it's own dictionary. Tengo, Touchpal, etc.

Well crap.

Thanks for replying, though, speedy1979.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a third party keyboard that is as bells-and-whistles free as possible? (basically, like the default keyboard only with its own dictionary)

Cheers

i am using resco pro which i won on this site. it seems to do fine. it is learning some of the terms and practices i use with my work. i dont think it has an editor though..checking.... ok its ver 5 and doesnt have an editor but it has learned the terms i use in my job. so if you type it in a few times it seems to remember next time. i have it set to show 4 words after typing 3 letters...hope it helps a bit...
