[PD] cpu load indicator..

hi Mathieu

those examples look good, i was thinking of a very
direct method, like typing in a linux terminal, so
that the rest of the object name would appear in the
object box being created, or when there are a number
of options beginning with ff* for instance, then maybe
an additional max msp type box like shown in your
screenshots which highlights a choice/guess
immediately, so focus shifts to the "object choice
list box" and the choice of object made using the
up/down cursor keys....

the linux style tab autocomplete seemed like a very
elegant way to do this, what i had in mind was some
kind of method which doesn't even use any extra boxes,
but completes the rest of the object name (or as much
of the name as possible before the user has to choose
the final letters to select the object they want)

all the best
adam
