I have a lot of people and places in my realm and I don't remember exactly how their names are spelled or even their names. But as you know, seeing is remembering.

It would be very useful with a feature, that would work thusly:

When writing in an article/snippet/whatever one could hit a hotkey. Whatever is being written after that is being compared to all topics (in both story and world almanac) and will be presented in a dropdown menu under the cursor, making it easy to select.

Say I want to insert the name of a shop called Chandler's Weapon and Armour - or was it Chandler's Armour and Weapons? I don't recall, but as soon as I hit the hotkey and start typing "Chand" all the Chandler family members and the shop will appear in the dropdown menu and all I have to do is press arrow down till I highlight the wanted item, press enter and it is inserted in the text.

Pressing the hotkey again will turn of the function without doing anything.

Thank you - moving to that topic.

It seems I am very good at choosing the wrong search terms when I look for previous topics...

Nah, there's a load of stuff here. I only do that because it's useful to me and my crappy memory. "Hmm... did I see that somewhere before?"

It's all good.
