Thanks, Ed. It seems that ibus-typing-booster is exactly what I am
looking for. However, I cannot put it working on my machine.

I run

ibus-setup

and go to Preferences and add the

Other -Typing booster

input method, but, when I open gedit and write something, no
suggestions are presented to me as was supposed. It appears that
"Typing booster" is being ignored.

Any ideas? I am running F33 and XFCE.
