 1 | ## Anycomplete
 2 | 
 3 | The magic of Google Autocomplete while you're typing. Anywhere.

 6 | 
 7 | ### Installation
 8 | 
 9 | Anycomplete is an extension for [Hammerspoon](http://hammerspoon.org/). Once Hammerspoon is installed, you can install the Autocomplete Spoon:
10 | 
11 |     $ git clone https://github.com/nathancahill/anycomplete.git ~/.hammerspoon/Spoons/Anycomplete.spoon
12 | 
13 | To initialize, add to `~/.hammerspoon/init.lua` (creating it if it does not exist):
14 | 
15 | ```lua
16 | anycomplete = hs.loadSpoon("Anycomplete")
17 | anycomplete.bindHotkeys()
18 | ```
19 | 
20 | Reload the Hammerspoon config.
21 | 
22 | ### Usage
23 | 
24 | Trigger with the hotkey `⌃⌥⌘G`. Once you start typing, suggestions will populate.
25 | They can be choosen with `⌘1-9` or by pressing the arrow keys and Enter.
26 | Pressing `⌘C` copies the selected item to the clipboard.
27 | 
28 | The hotkey can be changed by passing an argument to
29 | `bindHotkeys` call (in your `~/.hammerspoon/init.lua` file)
30 | such as:
31 | 
32 | ```lua
33 | anycomplete:bindHotkeys({{"cmd", "ctrl"}, "L"})
34 | ```
35 | 
36 | ### Warning
37 | 
38 | Google might block your IP address if you use this. See [#26](https://github.com/nathancahill/Anycomplete/issues/26).
39 | 
40 | ### Privacy
41 | 
42 | No keystrokes are sent to Google until you trigger the hotkey and start typing. If you prefer DuckDuckGo,
43 | set the `engine` option:
44 | 
45 | ```lua
46 | anycomplete = hs.loadSpoon("Anycomplete")
47 | anycomplete.engine = "duckduckgo"
48 | anycomplete.bindHotkeys()
49 | ```
