    I used to have a lot of auto completion scripts.

    Like I could type only "inc" at the beginning of a line and then press "CTRL-ENTER" and have it replace my text with any text of my choice, in this case "inc" was replaced with

    #include <$>   With the cursor being placed where the $ symbol is.

    I had others that were much more complex but now this feature doesn't work.  I am not sure exactly when it stopped working, but lately I am really starting to miss it.

    I have spend some time trolling through the menus and I can't even find where I got to enter these shortcuts. 

    I can remember exactly what the screen looked like where I was editing these shortcuts.  But I can't seem to find it.

    Was this feature removed?  Was this just a plug-in that I had downlaoded that has gone "invalid" after upgrading to unicode?

    Thanks in advance for any information..

      Wasn't this in the QuickText plugin? I don't have it installed here, and it is not in the official collection.

      I checked at home last evening, and the facility you refer to is the QuickText -> Options dialog box. There is an unicode build somewhere on the Plugin developmennt forum. Search for posts with QuickText less than 3 months old I think.

      Several unicode versions of QuickText can be found here: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=6041956

      Could you describe the screen in detail? Or, better yet, send us a mock-up picture so that we could search for it?
