A sane T9 engine.

![t9demo](https://pintobyte.com/tmp/t9_demo_light.gif)

Features:

- contractions (just type the word like you would if the apostrophe didn't exist. no need to hit '1')

- re-completions on backspace

- auto capitalization/custom capitalization

- persistent custom dictionary

Keys:

- 1-9: normal T9 input (1 is punctuation, 2-9 is a-z)

- a-z, punctuation: alternate input for QWERTY keyboards. maps to one of the 1-9 keys.

- Tab: next completion

- 0 or space: accept completion and insert a space

- Backspace: delete character

- Enter: when '?' is showing (indicating an unknown word): add a custom word to

  the dictionary. Otherwise, accept the current completion without adding a space

- ^: cycle capitalization mode

- ctrl-w: backspace entire current word

- ~: toggle T9 engine on and off

- ctrl-c: copy current line to clipboard

- ctrl-u: clear entire line
