Proser creates a top level X window in which users can type. The application provides statistical word completion suggestions. The suggestions are displayed on five buttons at the top of the window. Two methods are available to select one of the suggestions: Click the respective onscreen button, or type one of F5-F9. Completion is based on the word_completion package, which uses a frequency-ranked 6000 word dictionary.

A Copy button copies the entire typed text into the X cut buffer (a.k.a. clipboard), from where it may be pasted into any other window.

A special link exists between Proser and SpeakEasy. Proser provides two SpeakEasy related buttons:

1. Erase the SpeakEasy text display

2. Send the entire Proser window text to SpeakEasy and have it

   • spoken by the currently selected voice. The SpeakEasy window may be in a minimized state during this operation.

Users may type their text from a physical, or onscreen keyboard or from the morser_input package.
