1) You could use a script, if you want you can use this (just copy that in the script part of the snippet editor) - it sends backspace, ” and a {space}
That should work but is probably not ideal as lintalist will create a script, run the script and delete the script for just one character. If you use it often I'd would use method 2 outlined below. If you only use it once a day there is probably no need to bother.
2) Might be better (faster, more reliable) to use AutoHotkey's native hotstrings.
If you create a file
autocorrect.ahk in the lintalist folder that will automatically be included - see
https://github.com/lintalist/lintalist/ ... .ahk#L2455 - you can create the file with notepad or other text editor you may prefer. Just make sure it is saved with that exact name, so
autocorrect.ahk and not
autocorrect.ahk.txt by accident as sometimes happens when you save files in notepad.
I use that to define my non-lintalist hotstrings for typos e.g. teh -> the abuot -> about etc. You could use that here as well.
In
autocorrect.ahk just add this line. Be sure to remove / change the qm2 snippet (change the shorthand for example) and start lintalist again, now
autocorrect.ahk should be loaded. If you type qm2 it should work as well.
Be sure to check the options of Hotstrings
https://autohotkey.com/docs/Hotstrings.htm#Options - you could for example change it so qm2 works WITHIN a word or without typing an end character.
(Future editions of lintalist will probably be able to make use of the new hotstrings() function recently to AutoHotkey but I haven't been able to get around to it yet. Once that is added hotstrings added in
autocorrect.ahk could be managed via Lintalist)
