Not sure if this is possible now or if it should be a suggestion.
When use Text Expander I typically use it for a single command then press the assigned hotkeys Ctrl 2 to pause FK. It would a nice addition to add the pausing within the Text Expander (Substitute) or Start Menu (Command).
Example:
Text Expander
Outlook
Outlook
c:\program files\M$\Outlook.exe
pause FK <- this is what I am looking to add to the Text Expander or Start Menu items
Thank you for the consideration...JGM
Auto Pause FK after a command completes
i'm not sure I understand, why do you need to pause?
You can insert a pause in miliseconds as follows:
Type: Send
Type: Command

Code: Select all
{1000}
Code: Select all
Sleep, 1000
Sorry for the confusion, I am referring to automatically suspending / pausing FastKeys ( or disabling it ) after I execute command.
Just curious, why would you need this?
Anyway, the pause shortcut is Ctrl+2 by default so you can automate it like this:
Type: Send
or
Type: Command

Tom,
Thx, I updated the Text Expander from Run to Command and added your code which works.
When I run a text expander I tend to forget to press ctrl 2 to pause FK, this will help my forgetfulness.

And why you want to pause FastKeys?
