Text expander and ASCII code 96

roze · Post by **roze** » Jul 16th, ’24, 20:37

I would like to use a text expander to write some words that include the character ` (ASCII code 96).
Can I write this character normally like other characters?
I don't see it in the special keys menu.

This is an escape character in FastKeys. Try ``

Writing one or two characters works for me - e.g.
````{Left 2}

so this doesn't work quite right
``````shell{Enter}{Enter}``````{Up}

Am I doing something wrong?

It works for me. What's your problem?

When I had it like this:
``````shell{Enter}{Enter}``````{Up}
the last (third character) ` was not displayed.

When I changed it to:
``````shell{Enter}{Enter}``````{Space}{Up}

it's OK.
