The processor runs a predictive editor program for generating an output containing a word matching a received string of ambiguous key strokes. Furthermore an editor application is controlled by the processor means for editing a text based on the predictive editor programs interpretation of key strokes received from the editor application, and comprising means, said editor application stores a list of matching words received from said predictive editor program, at least a part of said text string is displayed in the display. the keypad includes at least one softkey whose functionality is displayed in the display and controlled by the processor means. When said editor program runs out of possible word matches to the received key stroke string, said processor means changes the functionality of said at least one softkey to a short cut to another editor application for inputting word based upon unambiguous key strokes. <IMAGE>
