The Predictive Input Dialog is a ScummVM aid for running AGI engines games (which notoriously have command line input) on devices with limited keyboard input. The dialog is fully usable with the mouse, but a few provisions have been made to make its use more comfortable by naturally mapping the functionality to the keypad.

In order to enable predictive input in AGI games, you need to copy the pred.dic file in the ScummVM extras folder or the folder of the game you wish to play.
Newer versions of ScummVM come bundled with the files required to enable Predictive Input Dialog, and will not require any additional action. However, if for some reason predictive input is not working, you may need to copy the “pred.dic” file from the [https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/blob/master/dists/pred.dic ScummVM repository] into either the folder with the other game files, or the extra path folder as set in the ScummVM settings.
