ShortKeys Lite is an easy to use macro tool that allows you to instantly replace custom text commands with text macros of your choice. The macros can insert single words, URLs, multi-line text blocks or any other text based information. You can design custom macro keywords, that have a prefix or suffix to distinguish them from regular words. As soon as you type one of these commands, it will be replaced with the designated text. For example, you could configure the following: when you type the word addicts, nothing happens, it's just a word that was typed, however if you set up a macro and then use =addicts (prefix is customizable), it could be replaced with "http://www.myleague.com/canastaaddicts" for example. In the same way, you could simply type "=mysig" and it would be replaced by your complete email signature. The Lite version can handle up to 35 of these macro commands for free.
