+>
+
+<para
+>You can get &konqueror; to help you enter a path or &URL; into the Location Toolbar by enabling one of the <guimenuitem
+>Text Completion</guimenuitem
+> features. To do this <mousebutton
+>right</mousebutton
+> click on a clear part of the Location Toolbar text entry box and select <guisubmenu
+>Text Completion</guisubmenu
+> from the pop up menu. This will let you choose between the following options:</para>
+
+<variablelist>
+
+<varlistentry>
+<term
+><guimenuitem
+>None</guimenuitem
+></term>
+<listitem

+>When you have typed part of a path or &URL;, pressing <keycombo action="simul"
+>&Ctrl;<keycap

+<listitem

+>As you type into the Location Toolbar window &konqueror; will automatically extend what you type to complete one possible path or &URL;, highlighting the characters it has added. Continue typing if that is not what you wanted or press &Enter; to accept it.</para

+<listitem

+>A drop-down window will appear as you type, showing the possible matches to what you have typed so far. When the path or &URL; that you want appears in the window double click on it with the &LMB;. You can also use the <keysym

+> and <keysym
+>Up Arrow</keysym

+<para
+>You should try out these different modes and pick the one that suits you best.</para>
+<para
+>The history of recently visited &URL;s that &konqueror; uses for the Text Completion function can be viewed and edited in the <guilabel
+>History </guilabel
+> page of the <link linkend="sidebar"
