A frustrated non-computerliterate friend ( who was grossly missold a laptop with W8 by PCW), asked me if there was a way to allow single key entry of some regular text strings.
AutoHotKey actually does exactly what he requires, however the user interface is somewhat less than user friendly, and some questions about use with W8 do not have easily understandable answers ,(even to me)!
AHK appears to be a product that has just grown over 12 years without growing up:)
Has anybody found a similar program that allows straightforward txt input using, for example, a Alt/CTL/letterkey combination that is not single program specific? I thought it would be an easy to find a reputable third party shareware program when I volunteered to find something for him and answer the problem. I do not want something that will corrupt the assigned function key assignments for W8 (there appear to be many!).
There would appear to be many people who would actually pay for the right small program so Rattle get your codewriting hat on!
