&gt; I've written quite a bit on this topic in the past. While my current 
&gt; parsers are in Java, and the rules of the lexical system are a little
&gt; different, there are similarities... I have finally implemented sentance
&gt; completion. As soon as there is a possible completion, the completed
&gt; sentance is printed in gray text ghosted off of the typed text. Hitting 
&gt; tab completes a current gray segment, hitting enter submits black only.

If there is an archive of previous postings on the subject, I would
be very interested.

Your parsers are in Java...  does that mean that it is the client which
does the parsing?
