How does Shorthands AutoReplace function work?
You enable AutoReplace by checking the AutoReplace box that appears above the Keyword box in Shorthand’s Main Window. When AutoReplace is enabled, Shorthand watches your keystrokes as you type. When you type a recognized keyword the AutoReplace window pops up and displays the keyword and the associated text. If you type a SPACE, ENTER, TAB or a non-alphanumeric character, Shorthand will backspace over the keyword and insert the text associated with the keyword directly into your word processor.
