<h4>HistoryCompletionModel.lessThan</h4>
<b>lessThan</b>(<i>left, right</i>)

<p>
        Public method used to sort the displayed items.
</p>
<p>
        It implements a special sorting function based on the history entry's
        frequency giving a bonus to hits that match on a word boundary so that
        e.g. "dot.python-projects.org" is a better result for typing "dot" than
        "slashdot.org". However, it only looks for the string in the host name,
        not the entire URL, since while it makes sense to e.g. give
        "www.phoronix.com" a bonus for "ph", it does NOT make sense to give
        "www.yadda.com/foo.php" the bonus.
