Text Expander

Expand a snippet of text to a longer form, using a hotkey (e.g., "so" → "site:stackoverflow.com"). Works in most text inputs, such as search boxes and multi-line comment fields.

Adding a text snippet:

• In the second box: enter the expanded form, replacing the "prefix" text from the first box.
