CONTEXTUALLY-SPECIFIC AUTOMATIC SEPARATORS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- outputting, by a computing device and for display at a presence-sensitive display, a graphical keyboard comprising a group of keys, wherein each key in the group of keys is associated with a respective, different region of the presence-sensitive display;
receiving, at the computing device, an indication of a gesture to select a sequence of keys that are each included in the group of keys of the graphical keyboard;
determining, by the computing device, that the selected sequence of keys corresponds to a character string that is identifiable by at least one format source, wherein the format source is associated with a syntax;
determining, by the computing device and based at least in part on the syntax, that at least one separator character is associated with the character string; and
in response to determining that the at least one separator character is associated with the character string, outputting, by the computing device and for display at the presence-sensitive display, the character string and the at least one separator character at a location proximal to the character string.

Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to techniques for outputting a graphical keyboard comprising a group of keys, wherein each key in the group of keys is associated with a respective, different display region, receiving an indication of a gesture to select a sequence of keys that are each included in the group of keys of the graphical keyboard, determining that the selected sequence of keys corresponds to a character string that is identifiable by at least one format source, wherein the format source is associated with a syntax, determining, based at least in part on the syntax, that at least one separator character is associated with the character string, and in response to determining that the at least one separator character is associated with the character string, outputting the character string and the at least one separator character at a location proximal to the character string.

17. A device comprising:
-
at least one processor; a presence a presence-sensitive display; a gesture module operable by the at least one processor to; output for display at a presence-sensitive display operatively coupled to the device, a graphical keyboard comprising a group of keys, wherein each key in the group of keys is associated with a respective, different region of the presence-sensitive display; receive an indication of a gesture to select a sequence of keys that are each included in the group of keys of the graphical keyboard; determine that the selected sequence of keys corresponds to a character string that is identifiable by at least one format source, wherein the format source is associated with a syntax; determine, by the computing device and based at least in part on the syntax, that at least one separator character is associated with the character string; and output the character string and the at least one separator character at a location proximal to the character string in response to determining that the separator character is associated with the character string. - View Dependent Claims (18)
in response to determining that the second separator character is associated with the second character string, output, by the computing device and for display at the presence-sensitive display, the second character string and the second separator character at a second location proximal to the second character string.

19. A computer-readable storage medium encoded with instructions that, when executed, cause at least one processor of a computing device to:
-
output, by the computing device and for display at a presence-sensitive display, a graphical keyboard comprising a group of keys, wherein each key in the group of keys is associated with a respective, different region of a presence-sensitive display; receive, at the computing device, an indication of a gesture to select a sequence of keys that are each included in the group of keys of the graphical keyboard; determine, by the computing device, that the selected sequence of keys corresponds to a character string that is identifiable by at least one format source, wherein the format source is associated with a syntax; determine, by the computing device and based at least in part on the syntax, that at least one separator character is associated with the character string; and in response to determining that the separator character is associated with the character string, output the character string and the at least one separator character at a location proximal to the character string. - View Dependent Claims (20)
in response to determining that the second at least one separator character is associated with the second character string, output, by the computing device and for display at the presence-sensitive display, the second character string and the second separator character at a second location proximal to the second character string.
