Shortcut for repetitive text chunks or phrases

Insert text chunks or phrases, which reoccur regularly, with a shortcut or replacement function, e.g. the string "ony" is automatically replaced by the standard phrase "Only for internal use in SAP". Can be combined with a spellchecker.

Hello Dino Ferrari,

this is something you can easily achieve with AutoHotKey.

The above request might look like this:

#IfWinActive ahk_exe MultiTerm.exe
:*:only_::Only for internal use in SAP

So whenever you type "only_" in MultiTerm, it is substituted by the string you define, no <ENTER> or anything needed.

All the best, Daniel
