Choose a Keyword

A Keyword is the text you type to insert a Template.

Keyword rules

• Use 2–100 characters.
• Do not use spaces.
• Use a Keyword that no other Text Snippet or Action uses.

Keywords are case-insensitive, so ,thx and ,THX are the same Keyword.

Avoid unwanted Replacements

Typing Hero replaces a Keyword as soon as you finish typing it. If a Keyword is also a normal word, such as thanks, it expands every time you type that word.

Start your Keywords with a character you rarely type, such as a comma: ,thx, ,ship, ,check.

To make a Keyword wait until you type a space, turn on Expand after space.

Letter case you type

For a Keyword that starts with a letter, the case you type changes the inserted Template. For a Text Snippet with the Keyword thx and the Template thanks for your order:

A Keyword that starts with a symbol, such as the comma in ,thx, always inserts the Template as you saved it. Choosing a Template from Suggestions follows these same rules.
