Abstract

Methods and systems for processing text input within a man-machine interface (MMI) application framework are provided and may comprise creating at least one text editor by an active application and generating at least one text edit view by the text editor. Text input, for example, predictive input, multi-tap input and/or numeric input, which may be associated with the text edit view, may be received by the text editor. At least one text editor feature may be associated with at least one text editor and the text editor feature may comprise a maximum string length characteristic and/or a cursor characteristic. The text editor feature may be customized for each text editor view and the text input may be buffered by a buffer within the MMI application framework.
