However, when I attempt to edit the text-edit-autoreplace file none of the custom commands that I enter work? When I save the original file from my device and then view it as a text file the format is basically..........ttyl|talk to you later.......yet when I add this to my text-edit-autoreplace file and send it to my pre, it doesn't work. I would like to add the shortcut commands, but cant seem to get the edits to my file to work on my device?
In the text file (which I don't save as a .txt) the commands are all separated by what appears to be a square 0 or O, but I haven't been able to figure out how to reproduce this letter/input on my keyboard? Is this a special character of some kind? I downloaded and saved the google 15K and 5K word dictionaries as well. The format for the code on those appears as ,beleive|believe......enter, then comma-incorrect spelling|correct spelling-enter and so on. I can't get the google dictionaries to work when I send them to the pre......so I assume there is something wrong with that format that my pre isn't reading correctly.
I understand the basic program code is misspelled word|correct spelled word........or shortcut|long phrase.......but what is the input in between each set?
Please help, because I need to get these shortcuts working for email and messaging........I can tell how much those that use this function love it.
Also, I realize there is an app called autocorrect edit that will help do this as well, but I'm not sold yet on the app.......nor do I feel its likely worth five dollars if you can just do it yourself. Please help me figure out how to add this functionality to my phone.
Thanks in advance for your help..........nobilo.
I don't quite understand what you are saying with the commands, when I open up the file I get no commands just basically a file looking like:
incorrect|correct
incorrect|correct
.
.
.
.
my choice short hand|long hand
Just add what you want at the bottom or put as alphatbetical if you like.
If you follow sqyarcs post properly then I don't see where you can go wrong.
I will also ask for this post to be merged.
