UTF? No, Import short lists? No True autotext? No!
pageNotesJune 11, 2010
Pros
It does perform as advertised when restricted to ASCII characters.
Cons
Desired: \delta -> ?. This should happen automatically, without having to press any control keys. Furthermore, I should be able to import long lists of similar shortcuts in a single step.
Summary
My primary motive in using such a program is to expand my keyboard to include arbitrary UTF characters such as ?, ?, or ?. Didn't happen. Then I'd like to be able to publish standard lists of shortcuts similar to those implemented in LaTex - couldn't find that feature. Finally, I'd like the shortcuts to happen automatically, as they do in Microsoft Word.

Summary
I was so use to using Thebat email client with the macros. Since being frustrated with Thebat, I switched to another email client. I have missed the ability to use macros in typing out repetative text in emails. Found this and love it.
