Abstract

Systems and Methods for configuration of a menu for display via a user interface are described. In an implementation, a method includes monitoring text input by a user via a user interface. A menu is configured, based on the monitoring, to display actions to be performed using the text. In another implementation, a method includes examining a plurality of inputs received from a user. The inputs specify text and selection of an action from a menu to be performed on the text. An alternative technique is displayed that may be utilized to enter the text and perform the action.
