There's a phrase I often use, "...at 81 years with incipient Alz's..." to excuse one kind of blunder or another; and I often need a code not available in the forum I'm using, eg, " "
...so Is there a way I can make such a phrase or code appear with a single keystroke, that is command-s or the like
I know it can be done because I used to know how, but ...at 81 years with incipient Alz's...
Thanks for your attention to my ridiculous needs
@dalehileman,
You could just turn that into your site signature.
Goto your account profile page:
http://able2know.org/account/profile/
There is a text box which allows you to have a signature (not pictures) of no more then 250 characters.
@tsarstepan,
Thank you Tsar but forgive me if I wasn't clear. I want a keystroke that will work at any forum or site etc. For instance composing any message anywhere I can capitalize a Word by highlight, Edit, Transformations, Capitalize
…though that particular example is pretty cumbersome and tedious. I'd be happier with Mac if he made such editing easier
@dalehileman,
i don't think tsar misunderstood, he simply suggested the only option he could think of
@djjd62,
You hit my answer on the tip of the nose DJ.
((ouch!))
@djjd62,
here's something you could copy and paste as your signature
Your Attention Please,This Is A Public Service Announcement Regarding dalehileman: "...at 81 years with incipient Alz's...", Please Consider This When Approaching, Thank You
@dalehileman,
That's easy for me to answer:
I don't know.
@Lustig Andrei,
I supposed if I weren't so lazy I could find the answer Googling; but I'm surprised art a sophisticated site like a2k someone wouldn't have an immediate answer
..but thanks guys anyway
@dalehileman,
Aren't there things like "macros" that can do that?
@Frank Apisa,
Yes, yea, Frank, exactly, you're on the right trak
@dalehileman,
I used to have a system for setting up macros in Word...so that I could put my name, address, and phone number with the stroke of a key. I honestly do not remember how to do it anymore (poss. early onset Altz), but it is worth investigating to deal with the problem in the OP.
@Frank Apisa,

Thanks kindly Frank, it's not everyday I get a little encouragement in this conation of procrustean and insensate hermeneutic convolution
