On Screen Keyboard Text Correction and Completion

phosh-osk-stub is an alternative on screen keyboard (OSK) for Phosh featuring several methods of text auto correction and completion. In the following we look at the different options available and how to use and configure them: For any form of completion to be available, the application that features the text input needs to support the text-input-unstable-v3 Wayland protocol. If that isn’t available phosh-osk-stub will enter a fall back mode where it acts more like a physical keyboard (via the virtual-keyboard Wayland protocol) and disable completion.
