Creating a ShortCut
You can create a ShortCut for any words, letters, or numbers. All ShortCuts you
create appear on the list in the ShortCut Preferences screen. All the ShortCuts are
available in any of your handheld applications and are backed up on your
computer when you perform a HotSync operation.
To create a ShortCut:
1.
Tap New.
2.
On the ShortCut name line, enter the letters you want to use to activate the
ShortCut.
3.
Tap the ShortCut Text area and enter the text that you want to appear when you
write the ShortCut characters.
TIP
You may want to add a space (space character) after the last word in your
ShortCut text. This way, a space automatically follows the ShortCut text.
4.
Tap OK.
TIP
To use a ShortCut, draw the ShortCut stroke followed by the ShortCut
characters. When you draw the ShortCut stroke, the ShortCut symbol appears
at the insertion point to show that you are in ShortCut mode.
