A problem was posted to the forums. SomeOne wanted to type text
into a
field, and have that text dynamically located among the lines of
another
scrolling list field such that closer and closer matches are found
as
the text
entry gets longer.
I have a stack that does this on revOnline. Look for a stack called
"Type
with Filter".

That is a very nice stack. Thank you for pointing it out.
But actually the original poster on the forum wanted to write text
in a
textfield and he wanted to use some shorthand or macro functionality.
Whenever he typed two periods and a letter a list was supposed to
pop up and
let him insert the text into the current text at the current position.
He was a doctor and wanted to save some of the repetitive work on
putting
medications and how to use it into the letter also avoiding typos I
guess.
I liked the idea and gave it a try:
the revlet:

the stack

Ah, medication names! What I do is use a custom prop that is an array
of abbreviations -- eg, srt = sertraline, mrt = mirtazapine, etc. --
that can be consulted as needed. My arrangement is that the user
enters a 3- or 4-letter abbreviation and then hits the <enter> key and
the medication name is substituted. I have a practice management stack
that does this and lots more. Write me off list if you need the
details on this point, or to compare notes on other features....
