Abstract: A computer for managing textual content of phrases where the computer determines if a phrase is entered into a first field in a display, wherein the phrase contains textual content. The computer determines if a portion of the textual content of the phrase is present in a phrase dictionary, wherein the phrase dictionary contains textual content of one or more topics. Responsive to determining that the portion of the textual content of the phrase is not present in the phrase dictionary, the computer determines to not enter the portion of the textual content of the phrase in a second field of the display.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, computer usable recordable-type medium having a computer usable program code, and a data processing system provide a custom dictionary associated with an instant messaging contact. A chat window within an instant messaging application with the instant messaging contact is initially opened. The chat window is associated with the instant messaging contact. The instant messaging application then identifies whether the instant messaging contact is listed in a contact list. If the instant messaging contact is listed in a contact list of the instant messaging application, a default language dictionary that is associated with the instant messaging contact is loaded. The default language dictionary is one of a plurality of language dictionaries for languages that can be implemented within the instant messaging application.

Abstract: A method of implementing user alert if a person will become unavailable includes sending, using a calendar program, information to a messaging program about an event scheduled in the calendar program by a user, wherein, during the event, the user will be unavailable to communicate with other persons; receiving, using the messaging program, the information about the event from the calendar program; creating, using the messaging program, a list of recipients who need to be informed of when the user will become unavailable to communicate with other persons; and creating and sending, using the messaging program, an alert message about the event to the recipients.
